Extractions: tryan@starbulletin.com Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra music director Samuel Wong, who is also music director of the Honolulu Symphony, will step down from his post next July at the end of his three-year contract. A native of Hong Kong, Wong joined the Hong Kong orchestra as music director in September 2000. During the 2002-03 season, Wong will conduct the orchestra for another 16 weeks, including his farewell concert with pianist Stanislav Ioudenitch in July. According to news reports, since Wong took over from David Atherton, the orchestra has been mired in controversy over his leadership. Musical America, a weekly newspaper covering drama, music and the arts, said philharmonic spokesman Paul Tam declined to give a reason for Wong's departure, saying it was the result of private negotiations between the general committee of the orchestra and Wong. The South China Morning Post reported that 15 musicians have been sacked and 19 have resigned from the 89-member ensemble since Wong was appointed; many players complained about Wong's management style and the orchestra's falling musical standards. Among those who left were three section principals viola, flute and oboe and two assistant principals cello and oboe. Wong and the orchestra administration have attributed the turnover to changes as the orchestra grew in stature.

She plays thundering boogie-woogies piano lines as well as deft glissandos, and she can sing with the practiced timing of a classic blues singer or with the husky sexuality of a heartbreaking chanteuse. Playing many of Yoko's compositions, with vocals in Japanese and English, the band revitalizes classic blues and mainstream jazz with its blend of Osaka and Chicago cultures. Azumi Azumi is a very original Japanese Blues singer, guitar player, and composer. Blues giants such as John Lee Hooker, Lightning Hopkins, and Howling Wolf influenced his foot stomping style and sharp guitar lines. He tours 200 days a year with his guitar and a notebook to draw MANGA (Japanese cartoons). His concerts and recordings have been reviewed and highly praised by many Japanese music publications. He is currently working on a CD of Japanese traditional songs. Anthony Brown's Asian American Orchestra The Asian American Orchestra was founded in 1997 while Dr. Anthony Brown served as Director of Big Bands Behind Barbed Wire, a federally funded multimedia national educational program about the Japanese American internment experience of World War II. The twelve member intercultural ensemble's Far East Suite CD, a reinterpretation of the Duke Ellington Orchestra's classic 1966 recording, received a Grammy nomination in 2000 for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Performance.

Extractions: August 9-15 2003 Vol 189 No 3300 Winner, Best Book Pages, 2003 Montana Book Awards Michael Houston Arts by Peter Shaw It was a clever and logical idea for the Auckland Philharmonia to schedule its current series of four piano-concerto-based concerts around the 150th anniversary of the company that makes Steinway pianos. These sleek black instruments have long dominated the stages of the world's concert halls. Most first-rate artists have one or more in their homes. Those of us with more humble Broadwoods or Brinsmeads can only enviously touch the keys of a Steinway in shops where the price tag rivals that of a Mercedes. This year also marks the 50th anniversary of the death of Russian composer Sergey Prokofiev. He had the misfortune to die on March 5, 1953, about an hour before Stalin; his death went unannounced during the protracted period of mourning for the Russian leader. Prokofiev's funeral the following day was small, and attended only by close friends. Four years later the state made amends by posthumously awarding Prokofiev the Lenin Prize. It remains to be seen where and how Stalin's anniversary will be commemorated in 2003. However, orchestras throughout the world are programming performances of works by Prokofiev. Many of them include works less frequently heard than his tuneful First (Classical) and Seventh symphonies, the third piano concerto and, of course, the wonderful Romeo and Juliet ballet score recently performed by the Royal New Zealand Ballet.

Extractions: Adventures in Cross Cultural Synthesis Jon Jang and his Pan Asian Arkestra, courtesy of In Motion Magazine by Dave Kaufman (August 1998) Eastern music has had a considerable impact on the evolution of jazz since the 1950's. However, jazz musicians have only begun to explore the immensely rich variety of musical styles originating from the Asian continent. Some of the freshest, most innovative, and compelling sounds have emerged from a movement known as the Asian Improv. This movement consists of a growing number of (mostly) Asian American artists such as Jon Jang, Francis Wong, Glenn Horiuchi, Mark Izu, Miya Masaoka, Fred Ho, Jeff Song, Jason Kao Hwang, and Vijay Iyer . African American artists such as Anthony Brown and James Newton have also played an instrumental role in the evolution of this art form. Asian Improv music is not reflected in any one style, but in a strikingly diverse body of work that draws on a range of traditional classical and folk musics from countries such as China, Japan, India, Korea, and the Philippines. These artists all share a profound appreciation of the jazz tradition from Ellington to Mingus to the contemporary vanguard. This music is not borne out of hybridity, facile East-meets-West fusion or any conscious mixing of styles but of a more organic deeply rooted understanding of the jazz idiom as well as the music of their ancestry. The Asian Improv movement is also a product of a growing political consciousness and activism in the Asian artistic (and broader) community. Many of these artists are first generation American-born and have experienced a sense of marginalization and exclusion from the American mainstream and music industry. Although they may not have experienced the overt racism and institutional discrimination to the extent that their parents have, the culture of division and intolerance of difference has informed their lives and their art. This sentiment is eloquently expressed in the following quote by pianist Vijay Iyer, from the liner notes to his excellent CD

Extractions: Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji and President Clinton stood in the receiving line, pumping hands and beaming as they greeted guests at last week's official White House dinner. The men and women were dressed to the nines and looked very pleased to be there. But how did these folks get invited to this shindig? Good question. Even some of the guests aren't sure. "I got this invitation two weeks ago, and I have yet to find out why," said Ya-Yue J. Van, president of Molecular Kinetics. "I'm just a small businesswoman from the state of Washington." "I don't know," admitted D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, a guest at Thursday's dinner who last attended a function like this during the Carter administration. "They don't send out a little card of explanation." Yeni Wong, who developed the corner of Seventh and H streets NW in the heart of Washington's Chinatown, last saw the president when the First Family dropped by her Golden Palace restaurant at Christmastime.
