[Quimpersound] Wayne Horvitz & Danny Barnes

[quimpersound at lists.olympus.net]

Hi Everyone,

Steve here with a rare between-newsletters message. I just wanted to remind
everyone of the Wayne Horvitz/Danny Barnes show tonight (Thursday the 2nd)
at the Upstage. Tickets are only $12(!) and are available at the store and
at the door. If you call ahead for reservations you'll be assured of a great
seat - the number for the Upstage is: 385.2216. The show begins at 8pm.

Those of you who attended the last Sweeter Than The Day show know how
diverse, musical and fun this group is. Add in the legendary Danny Barnes on
banjo and we can expect one of - if not *the* - best show you're likely to
see in Port Townsend all year!

Hope to you see you there!

   -Steve

*Quimper Sound Presents Wayne Horvitz and Sweeter Than the Day*

*With Special Guest Danny Barnes *

PORT TOWNSEND, WA -- Quimper Sound is proud to present *Wayne Horvitz* and
his band *Sweeter Than the Day* live at the Upstage on Thursday November
2nd, 2006. For his return engagement in Port Townsend he's enlisted world
renowned banjo player and composer Danny Barnes.

Mr. Horvitz is world renowned as a composer, pianist and bandleader. His
recordings with his latest ensemble have garnered rave reviews both here and
abroad:

"Horvitz' understanding of country, blues, folk and even
singer-songwriter-type music is made quite plain on this CD. None of these
elements are represented in an obvious way, and that's perhaps the main
reason why this disc appeals so strongly. The strength of the music lies in
Horvitz' beautifully crafted compositions. Like Monk and Herbie Nichols,
Horvitz is able to create memorable and distinctive melody lines from
seemingly disparate, even mundane, motifs and phrases."     *- Dave Wayne,
Jazz Weekly*

"... towards a quietly powerful chamber modernism full of eclectic
composerly acumen that makes dreamlike reference to jazz, country, folk and
hymn-like material. Delightful and original."      - *Chris Ingham, Mojo (**
UK**)*

Sweeter Than the Day is *Wayne Horvitz* - Piano and Keyboards, *Timothy
Young* – Guitars, *Keith Lowe* - Acoustic Bass, and *Andy Roth* – Drums.

Tickets are $15 and are available at Western Washington's Oldest Independent
Record Store, Quimper Sound, located at 901 Water Street, Port Townsend or
by calling the Upstage at 360.385.2216.
