[WASHINGTON DC JAZZ NETWORK]

JAZZ AVENUES
by Steve Monroe

NETWORKING FOR OUR JAZZ HERITAGE:





The new Washington Jazz Network is the product of one of our area’s tireless promoters of the heritage,



George V. Johnson Jr., whose network aims to help musicians, and the venues where they play and create a new worldwide community devoted to jazz. Johnson, the ART OF JAZZ VOCALESE MASTER who has performed with many of the greats like Pharoah Sanders, James Moody, Lou Donaldson, Dizzy Gillespie, Fred Foss, Arnold Sterling, Buck Hill and many others, said he started the site (at washingtondcjazznetwork.ning.com) as a place for “every musician to meet and network.” (Vocalese is the setting of lyrics to established jazz orchestral instrumentals.)

The Washington DC Network has sent several request to our President "Barack Obama" for a response on his position about how he would bring about a CHANGE to promote "America's Classical Music JAZZ". We've also requested that he become a member of the site to address issues as he's done with myspace and other sites. Don't you agree? Wall Street and just about ever sector of America are receiving relief. What about America's Classical Music "JAZZ". Is America's Classical Music JAZZ included in the package deal??? Musicians are playing on the street corners, parks, subways practically begging for money to make a living. Countries around the world respect Jazz on the highest order and in return Jazz musicians are probably the lowest paid musicians in America, yet they contribute, influence and play a vital role in America's culture.

Inviting a few high profile jazz musicians or use to be jazz musicians to the Whitehouse for personal performances is a good idea, but will not solve the problem. What about the musicians in who play in the trenches. The little people?

The President has yet to respond! Send letters to www.BarackObama.com

The festival has functioned completely grassroots without corporate funding . No alcohol is served. There is little to no walk-in traffic to the club. The club owner has been nice enough to offer a small guarantee to the fantastic women musicians but at great risk.
