Jazz pianist McCoy Tyner's distinctive and powerful blues-based style is defined by his explosively percussive left hand’ that has earned him the title of one of the most influential jazz pianists of the 20th century.
Jazz pianist McCoy Tyner’s distinctive and powerful blues-based style is defined by his “explosively percussive left hand.” His approach to melodies and chord-voicing has made him one of the most influential jazz pianists of the 20th century and his techniques have been mimicked by countless musicians. Tyner is a unique improvisational player who has released a staggering number of albums at nearly 80 and has earned four Grammys over the course of his impressive career. McCoy Tyner is presented in association with Jill Newman Productions.
Declared by Rolling Stone as “the most provocative thinker in current jazz,” composer and pianist Jason Moran keeps the swing tradition alive in modern jazz. Teaming with bassist Tarus Mateen, and drummer Nasheet Waits to become Jason Moran and the Bandwagon, this is one of the most creative piano jazz trios around. Beginning with the debut album, Soundtrack to Human Motion to Artist in Residence, this force to be reckoned with has challenged the status quo by combining elements that include improvisation, avant-garde jazz, classical music, hip-hop and spoken word. A decade into the trio’s career, they are releasing Ten this summer, a new album hailed by AntiMusic as “the most assured and focused album of Moran’s acclaimed career.”
Hailed by the New York Times as "a tenor saxophonist with an enigmatic, elegant and hard-driving style," JD Allen is a bright rising light on today’s international jazz scene. His unique and compelling voice on the instrument – the result of a patient and painstaking confrontation with the fundamentals of the art - has recently earned Allen a blaze of critical attention signaling his ascension to the upper ranks of the contemporary jazz world.
Revive Da Live’s premiere Charlie Parker Revisited is an innovative tribute to the musical and cultural legacy of Charles Parker and will be led by an all-star band featuring Raydar Ellis, Ben Williams, Justin Brown, Jaleel Shaw, Marcus Strickland, Marc Cary, Corey King and Ingmar Thomas. Tonight’s show will explore the genius of Parker by combining music from his past with modern day interpretations. Since 2006, the anthem of "Revive Da Live" has rung loudly in uniting prolific, groundbreaking, gifted and versatile hip hop artists and contemporary jazz musicians in a combined effort to educate and inspire broader audiences about the depths and origins of today's popular music.

As innovators of the modern bebop sound The Cooker's musicianship continues to dazzle its spectators.
The distinct soulful and romantic voice of Jimmy Scott continues to charm audiences even at the age of 84. A regular on the jazz scene in the 1950’s and 60’s, Jimmy’s career came roaring back in the early 90’s and has continued to flourish ever since. His natural style, phrasing and knack for bending notes have earned him a long list of admirers including the who’s who of fellow jazz greats. Jimmy Scott is presented in association with Jill Newman Productions.
Primarily self-taught, jazz pianist and composer Vijay Iyer is considered daringly original for creating jazz that is simultaneously improvisational, choreographed and grounded in groove and pulse. His cutting-edge music is powerful, compelling and has earned him numerous accolades in the jazz world. With critically acclaimed releases such as Panoptic Modes, Blood Sutra and Historicity, The New Yorker has given Iyer the title of, "one of today's most important pianists...extravagantly gifted,"
One of the highlights of late 1950s and early 1960s was the development of "hard bop", a driving first-born descendent of the bebop era. The Cookers is comprised of many of the musicians who contributed to the development of this sound and to pushing the music forward from there. The band features Billy Harper on tenor sax, Eddie Henderson and David Weiss on trumpet, Craig Handy on alto sax, George Cables on piano, Cecil McBee on Bass and Billy Hart on drums. While giants in their own right, the members of this ensemble have performed and/or recorded with pretty much every jazz great of the past 40 years including Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Art Blakey, Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach, Herbie Hancock, Lee Morgan, Freddie Hubbard, Wayne Shorter, and Dexter Gordon, to name just a few. Combined they have appeared on over 1,000 recordings including many of the groundbreaking and most important recordings in the history of this music.
The sultry, bluesy vocals of native New Yorker Catherine Russell is making jazz fans everywhere sit up and take notice. Her unique sound is a throw-back to the female blues and jazz stars of the 1950’s and ‘60’s. With a sound that is at once powerful and touchingly vulnerable, her rich alto voice transports the listener to another time and prompts listeners to tap their feet and nod along to the music.

Saturday, August 21, 2010 from 5:00pm to 10:00pm
Sun To Stars, our annual South Asian festival of food, music and dance, is turning 5, and we’d like you to come to the party!
The festival was inspired by the all-night concerts held along India’s Ganges River where not only are the talents of a wide variety of artists presented, but also a vibrant mix of families, children, couples, friends and random passersby as everyone settles in to relax and enjoy. The Solar One blacktop in front of the stage will be transformed with carpets and pillows into a South Asian seating area, with carpets and pillows for attendees to lounge on. Long Island City’s Five Star Banquet and Restaurant will be serving North Indian fare for $8 a plate; they’re known for their chicken makhani (butter chicken).

Saturday, August 14, 2010 from 1pm to 5pm; concert at 4pm
Summer in Little Italy will present two special weekends in August, called Bertolli Olive Oil Family Fun Weekends, on Saturdays, August 7 and 14, 2010. The daylong activities will begin at 1 PM and continue through 5 PM.
Bertolli Olive Oil will partner with up to six local Italian restaurants to hold olive oil tastings from 1 to 3 PM on each of those Saturdays. The tastings will take place at a small table on the sidewalk directly in front of each restaurant. Bertolli will also provide sachets (15 mL packets) and recipe booklets for distribution to members of the public.
Each tastings area will be staffed by a Bertolli representative who will encourage passers-by and diners at the restaurant to sample Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil by dipping a piece of bread. Bertolli will also provide 8.5 oz bottles of Extra Virgin Olive Oil to offer to restaurant diners for bread dipping at tables. The guests will then be invited take the bottle home with them, with a limit of one bottle per table.
Restaurants participating in the Bertolli Olive Oil Tastings include: Da Nico, 164 Mulberry Street (between Grand and Broome); Grotta Azzurra, 387 Broome Street (corner of Grand); Il Cortile, 125 Mulberry Street (between Canal and Hester); S.P.Q.R., 133 Mulberry Street (between Hester and Grand); and Original Vincent’s, 119 Mott Street (corner of Hester).
Families visiting Little Italy on August 7 and 14 will also find a number of child-friendly performers positioned along the Mulberry Street Pedestrian Mall, including face painters, balloon artists and even a stilt walker! In addition, a Bertolli representative will be present near the corner of Hester and Mulberry Streets to hand out Bertolli–branded balloons and coloring books to children and families.
And to top off the Family Fun Saturdays, there will be free outdoor concerts from 4 to 5 PM by singing stars Alfio (August 7) and Jenna Esposito (August 14) in the Performance Area on Hester Street between Mulberry and Mott Streets.

DOT also partners with groups citywide to bring some summer streets fun to neighborhoods in all five boroughs. Visit the Weekend Walks website to find one near you.
So many activities are happening. Check them out at:

RECENT NEWS
Join Joy Ride
Joy Ride is a a group bike ride set to music. All the world’s a stage and you are on a bike to watch it. Motion, music and mingling will transform the way you see the city. Its as easy as...well, it’s as easy as riding a bike.
Joyride is a musical group bike ride and picnic created by theatre artist, Liz Sherman with a soundtrack designed by Grammy-award nominee Duncan Bridgeman.
At it’s heart Joyride is about the freedom we feel riding a bike, the deep ways that music affects us and the power of that shared experience. Joyride takes place on August 7th, 14th, & 21st.
The ride begins each of the three Saturdays at 11:00 am at Foley Square, follows the Summer Streets route and ends with a picnic in Central Park.
Participants must ride with speakers or use only one ear bud as required by law.
Space is limited so sign up today at www.joyrideo.com.
Swim at Summer Streets
Summer Streets lets you re-imagine the way we use our City streets. MacroSea has done the same for the humble dumpster. They have taken clean, unused shipping containers and transformed them into code-compliant swimming pools, complete with their own life guards and pool decks! The pools were an underground sensation in Brooklyn last year. MacroSea is now excited to share them with all New Yorkers as part of Summer Streets. The pools will be set up near the Grand Central viaduct and free entry bracelets will be handed out for time slots on a first come, first served basis.
FringeNYC brings Theater to Summer Streets
The New York International Fringe Festival will bring FringeJR and FringeNYTEASERS to the Soho rest area all three Saturdays. FringeJR will feature family-friendly theater shorts as well as interactive theater-based activities for kids. FringeNYTEASERS are like movie trailers -- but for plays. Enjoy samples of the plays being presented as part of the theater festival by over 200 theater companies from New York City and around the world.
