"The Nearnest of You"
featured in the music player

Philadelphia is blessed with great singers. Perhaps it's because we're such a musical town ... Whatever the cause, we've got a lot to be thankful for, and one listen to Denise King will turn you into a believer too!

Denise is a no-nonsense singer, whose naturally beautiful voice, vibrato and phrasing please musicians as well as fans. With over four wonderful CDs to her name, Denise spreads the work around to lots of our musicians, giving each a character of its own. From May - September she produces a series of Friday night Firehouse Concerts. Watch the Calendar !! You can check out her Web Page and even order her CDs there !!

POPSIC


Everyone loves a good road movie, whether it's Hope and Crosby or Fonda and Hopper. But the scope of those films pales in comparison to the ground covered by the Hayden Planetarium's new video, The Known Universe. The video starts in Tibet and zooms out through time and space until it shows well, the entire known universe.

The video, created for the new Rubin Art Museum exhibit Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, uses over a decade of data collected by researchers at the planetarium. Called the Digital Universe Atlas, the data encompasses the precise location of every object ever observed in the sky. From quasars to pulsars to black holes to nebulas, it's all there.

The observable universe spans 13.7 billion light years, with the background radiation aftershock of the Big Bang as the oldest, and farthest, signal. At that end of the universe lies the oldest material in creation, which, thanks to billions of years of expansion, has accelerated to almost the speed of light. That layer forms an event horizon past which not even light can travel, ringing our universe in what is essentially an inside out black hole.

But enough of my yammering! Check out the video yourself, but make sure to budget some extra time for sitting in slack-jawed awe.






Critics have their purposes, and they're supposed to do what they do, but sometimes they get a little carried away with what they think someone should have done, rather than concerning themselves with what they did~~~Duke Ellington

The GRAMMY nominated Michael Thomas Quintet is a powerful and energetic group that is deeply rooted in the rich tradition of jazz. The quintet has the unique capability to capture an audience and take them on an excursion to where "Hard-bop and Blues" swing joyfully, prayerfully, and soulfully. The group consists of members that
know jazz, respect jazz, and love jazz. There is nothing "laid back" about this group.

Remember what a great time the old East Coast Jazz Festival always was and what stellar work the beloved ancestor vocalist Ronnie Wells did to make it happen?



Recall how the East Coast Jazz Festival filled those mid-winter blahs around the DC area right after Super Bowl weekend, just when you were dying for springtime; how that event filled that void with an entire weekend of great artists, swinging sounds, fellowship with jazz lovers from across the country, and big fun all under one roof? Well daydream wistfully and regret the loss of that event no more!

SAVE THE DATE: The weekend of February 19-20… as the Mid Atlantic Jazz Festival ignites the return of that big fun at the same great venue -
the Hilton Executive Meeting Center in Rockville, MD (formerly the Doubletree Hotel)… for three days of good vibes, great socializing, and opportunities to hear the music as it was (classic sounds in the tradition), as it is (the current scene), and as it will be (the Next Generation)!

The Mid Atlantic Jazz Festival will reignite what was formerly known as The East Coast Jazz Festival (ECJF), in the flavor and style of that event, and in honor of ECJF founder Ronnie Wells. With a strong commitment to jazz education and the exceptional artistry of DC metro region musicians, the Mid Atlantic Jazz Festival will build upon the legacy of ECJF in presenting jazz to the region by perpetuating, nurturing and sustaining the jazz artform, engaging and teaching young musicians, and presenting top flight musicians.
