			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Festivals<br />
The Jive Aces have been storming across Europe performing at dozens of festivals this Summer (with several still to go!) including Glastonbury for the first time, an sensational fifth year at Montreux Jazz and a packed main stage gig at the Innocent Village Fete. Check out some of the pics on the right. I&#8217;ll be putting together a slide show when the season is finished of all the crazy action so watch this space.<br />
Stories From The Golden Age<br />
You may have been wondering what all that nonsense was earlier in the year when we sent out pictures of the band dressed as pirates. Well, the reason is, even though we are still about to release the new album, &#8220;Recipe For Rhythm&#8221;, we have actually recorded another album based on 1930&#8217;s and 40&#8217;s pulp fiction stories. The album, called &#8220;Amazing Adventures&#8221; will be released in the US first and then the UK but we are releasing the first two songs as a single on iTunes and other download sites in the in the iTunes USA store in September.<br />
Mini USA Tour<br />
In September we&#8217;ll be returning to the USA for a couple of weeks taking in some places we have been recently such as LA, Phoenix, DC, San Diego and Sacramento but also some places we have not been to for some time including San Francisco, Philadelphia and New York City. Check the schedule below for the dates and forward them on to anyone you know in those cities.<br />
Summertime Swing<br />
Summertime Swing was a massive success with over 1200 people packing Saint Hill Manor terrace and gardens. All our guests were amazing the legendary Keely Smith, the fabulous Kenny Ball, Craig Douglas, Toni Elizabeth Prima, Keith Ball, Crazy Jay, Andy Cooper, the Hollywood Hoppers and DJ Terry Elliot&#8217;s Sentimental Journey (who&#8217;s been with us since the first year).<br />
Stop Press!<br />
The band is now mid a four week non-stop run of shows, mainly festivals, around Europe. Firstly the Sildajazz Festival in Norway (where the band went straight after Summertime Swing) by popular demand for 4 nights at the festival&#8217;s top venue for the sixth year running, as well a special show at the football stadium. Then it was straight to Edinburgh for the Fringe where we played 3 days at the &#8220;City&#8221; Club, with some great reviews and a fourth night added due to ticket demand. Then down to Bridlington at the beautifully rennovated Spa before jetting back to Italy for a show to 4000 people at the Summer Jamboree festival in Senagalia, Italy. And this weekend it&#8217;s Twinwood Festival and Big River Blues &amp; Jazz in Belfast!<br />

Victor Prieto. &#8220;A fiendishly skilled accordionist and composer&#8221; &#8230;.&#8221;An effervescent improviser&#8221;&#8230;.&#8221;A dynamic jazz accordionist&#8221;<br />
The New York Times (Chinen)<br />
Victor Prieto now makes a most compelling case for the accordion as a primary jazz instrument on Persistencia. Yet this is not just a showcase of just Prieto&#8217;s brilliance, but also a view of an extremely taut trio with two other fine musicians.<br />
All About Jazz By Mark F. Turner</p>
<p>Prieto has raised the bar on what is possible on the accordion. His intensity and delight penetrate all barriers.<br />
The New York Post</p>
<p>Prieto plays accordion the way Toots Thielmans plays harmonica or Dino Saluzzi plays bandoneon. He transcends the instrument and just plays music. The key features of Prieto&#8217;s music are lyricism and drama. He writes fine, memorable melodies, then works with the band to create tracks with a very clear dramatic arch, sometimes more than one, engaging and carrying the listener forward&#8230; He tells stories and paints pictures with music<br />

<p><strong><span style="color: black;">Pawel Kaczmarczyk AUDIOFEELING - Autumn 2008 Tour:</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: black;">11.September  – Liepzig Jazztage - DE</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: black;">5.October  – Olympus Jazz Nights Festival (Warsaw) - PL</span></strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="color: black;">18.October – Cofeina – Sucha Beskidzka - PL</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: black;">22.November – Jazz Jantar Festival (Gdansk) - PL</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: black;">25.November– Jazzy Colors Festival (Paris) </span><span style="color: #1f497d;">–</span><span style="color: black;"> FR</span></strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt; text-align: center;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">&#8220;Audiofeeling&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;"><br />
This album was recorded at Polish Public Radio&#8217;s studio in Olsztyn. The recording engineer was Ryszard Szmit, and the piano was taken care of by Marek Buczniewicz, who also prepares instruments for Keith Jarrett, among others. &#8220;Audiofeeling&#8221; includes 10 compositions by Kaczmarczyk, comprising an overview of his musical interests and fascinations.<br />
While it&#8217;s not the most accessible or &#8216;easy&#8217; music, being of a somewhat different nature than the &#8217;smooth jazz&#8217; now in vogue, it conveys the true face of jazz as an improvised art. At the recording sessions, the musicians (Pawel Kaczmarczyk - piano, Michal Baranski - bass, Pawel Dobrowolski - drums, Grzegorz Piotrowski, Tomasz Grzegorski and Radek Nowicki - saxophones) didn&#8217;t play any written-out parts, but played &#8216;live&#8217;, creating the final shape of each piece as it happened.<br />
In a sense, this is a recording of a concert. The album was pressed on a gold CD storage medium. This gives the disc a lifetime several times longer than that of aluminum-based CDs, as well as slightly better sound quality.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt; text-align: center;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Sound Quality</span></strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;"><br />
Realisation of the best possible quality is a priority for ARMS. Prior to being sent for pressing, all recordings are listened to on dozens of various hi-fi systems, in an effort to make it possible to obtain optimal sound quality in a home listening environment. ARMS releases have won high praise in the  audiophile community. A recent album - &#8220;Sin&#8221; - has been recognised as being of reference quality for the testing of home as well as studio audio systems. Others - for example Leszek Mozdzer&#8217;s &#8220;Piano&#8221; and Piotr Zaczek&#8217;s &#8220;Mutru&#8221; - have also drawn favorable opinions on the phonographic market.<br />
From an audiophile perspective, &#8220;Audiofeeling&#8221; isn&#8217;t particularly enthralling upon its initial listening, due to the fact that the aspects of the overall sound which were focused on in the course of its creation were not the ambience, effective bass and a broad spectrum of overtones one expects from a recording of this quality. Here, the point was to recreate the raw sound of the band.<strong></strong></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;">Kaczmarczyk&#8217;s records have been also noticed as remarkable productions:</span></strong></span><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"></p>
<p><span>- Pawel Kaczmarczyk &#8220;Audiofeeling&#8221; feat. M.Baranski, P.Dobrowolski, R.Nowicki, T.Grzegorski, G.Piotrowski - was voted in the JAZZ FORUM (The European Jazz Magazine) Album of the Year (2007)</span></span></strong><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"></p>
<p><span>- Kaczmarczyk/Baranski/Dobrowolski  <a title="Jazz Trio" href="http://www.musicforlondon.co.uk/jazz_trio_htm">Jazz Trio </a>received Polish Public Television Channel 2&#8217;s &#8220;Album of The Year 2005&#8243; award for the CD &#8220;Live!&#8221;</span></span></strong><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span><span></span></p>

<p><span>One of Poland&#8217;s pre-eminent jazz <a href="http://www.musicforlondon.co.uk/Concert_Pianist.htm">pianists</a> from the younger generation, a student of the Karol Szymanowki Academy of Music&#8217;s Jazz Studies program in Katowice, composer, soloist and sideman. He performs with the Janusz Muniak Quartet, New Bone, and the Rafal Sarnecki Quintet, as well as leading his own trio. Pawel Kaczmarczyk has received many awards at various festivals and competitions: a special distinction at the 2002 edition of the Polish National Review of Jazz and Blues Groups in Gdynia, where he returned to take top honors in 2003; the title of Best Instrumentalist at Poland&#8217;s Jazz Juniors competition in 2002 an award for the best arrangement at the International Competition for Jazz Groups &#8220;JUNIOR JAZZ 2006&#8243;, in Usti nad Labem (Czech Republic), as well as first place in the &#8220;New Hope&#8221; category of Jazz Forum Magazine&#8217;s &#8220;Jazz Top&#8221; readers&#8217; poll from 2004 through 2007. The year 2006 also saw him being awarded a grant from the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. Pawel Kaczmarczyk is a winner of the &#8220;Melomani&#8221; Jazz Society&#8217;s Jazz Oscars Grand Prix in the &#8220;Hope of the Melomani&#8221; category for 2005.</span></span></strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><strong><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;"> </span></strong></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;">In 2001 Pawel Kaczmarczyk established a trio with Michal Baranski on bass, and Pawel Dobrowolski on drums. The group draws its inspiration from the work of artists like Herbie Hancock and Bill Evans; the concepts of Brada Mehldau and Wayne Shorter form part of their musical vocabulary as well. It&#8217;s music that is full of warmth and sensitivity, but with no lack of electrifying dynamics and avant-garde ideas. The trio won first place at the 26th &#8220;Jazz Juniors&#8221; International Competition for Young and Debuting Jazz Groups (2002), took the &#8220;Grand Prix&#8221; at the 40th &#8220;Jazz on the Oder&#8221; Jazz Festival in Wroclaw (2002), and was awarded the &#8220;Key to a Career&#8221; prize at the &#8220;Pomeranian Jazz Autumn&#8221; festival, as well as winning the 2nd Place &#8220;Golden Crocus&#8221; award at the Jelenia Gora Jazz Festival, several medals at the &#8220;Kultursalen Horbiger&#8221; competition in Vienna (2004), and 1st Place at the &#8220;JUNIOR JAZZ 2006&#8243; International Competition for Jazz Groups in Usti nad Labem (Czech Republic).</span></strong></span><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span><span></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></strong></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;">Pawel Kaczmarczyk has performed at a large number jazz festivals, including 28.Leverkusener Jazztage (Leverkusen-Germany), Gulf Jazz Festival (Kuwait), Gulf Jazz Nights (Dubai - United Arab Emirates), Goerlitz Jazztage (Goerlitz-Germany), 12.International Festival of Jazz Piano (Prague-Czech Republic), Warsaw Summer Jazz Days, Jazz en Nord (Lille-France), Jazzy Colors Festiwal (Paris-France), Krakow&#8217;s &#8220;Zaduszki Jazzowe In Chicago&#8221; (USA) and &#8220;Piwnica pod Baranami&#8221; Summer Festival, the Palatia Jazz Festival (Dirmstein-Germany), Prishtina Jazz Festival (Kosova), the Lamantin Jazz Festival (Szombathely-Hungary), the International Jazz Pianists&#8217; Festival in Kalisz, Lotos Jazz Festival – Bielska Zadymka Jazzowa, and many others&#8230; He also performs regularly in Poland&#8217;s (Tygmont, U Muniaka, Blue Note) and German’s finest jazz clubs.</span></strong></span><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span><span><strong></strong></span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 13.5pt;"><span><strong><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;">In 2005, the KBD Trio recorded their debut album &#8220;Live!&#8221;, which they are currently promoting through concerts in Poland and abroad. Pawel Kaczmarczyk has worked with a wide range of musicians, including Janusz Muniak, Adam Pieronczyk, Zbigniew Namyslowski, Roman &#8220;Gucio&#8221; Dylag, Bronislaw Suchanek, Janusz Stefanski, Pawel Jarzebski, Adam Kawonczyk, Jorgos Skolias, Monty Waters, Kazimierz Jonkisz, Artur Rojek (Myslovitz), Krzysztof Popek, Cezary Konrad, Tomasz Szukalski, Zbigniew Wegehaupt, Maciej Strzelczyk, Isham Rusty Jones, Grzech Piotrowski, Zach Brock, Brad Terry, Rafal Sarnecki, Aga Zaryan, Emil Kowalski, Lukasz Zyta, Maciej Adamczak, Adam Kowalewski, Jerzy Malek, Wojciech Pulcyn, Marcin Slusarczyk, Piotr Baron, Michal Baranski, Krzysztof Dziedzic, Pawel Dobrowolski, Radek Nowicki, Tomasz Grzegorski, Marek Balata, Adam Baldych and many others.</span></strong></span><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span></p>

Earlier this year, the poll results for 2007 were published and Pawel Kaczmarczyk placed highly in the Pianist of The Year category (2th, behind Leszek Mozdzer), as well as winning recognition as a Composer, Leader of an Acoustic Group (3rd, behind Tomasz Stanko Quartet and Simple Acoustic Trio), and Musician of The Year. What seems most significant, however, is that for the fourth year in a row he was at the top of the &#8220;The New Hope Of Polish Jazz&#8221; category.</span></strong></span><span><span style="font-size: 8.5pt; color: black;"> </span></span></p>

I am contacting you on behalf of the Nottingham National <a href="http://www.musicforlondon.co.uk/Jazz_Pianist_Jozef_Janik.htm">Jazz Piano </a>Competition organising committee.  The Competition is being held in Nottingham on 25th - 27th July 2008.  From the initial entries, just twelve pianists have been selected to perform in the semi final rounds (25th and 26th July) and from these, just four will proceed to the grand final (27th July).  The standard of entries was very high and our judges; Dave Newton, Jonathan Gee, Tim Richards and James Harpham have had a difficult time selecting the semi finalists.  All the pianists are under thirty years of age with the youngest being just seventeen.<br />
 <br />
The Competition is being staged by Clement Pianos, Nottingham with the help of generous sponsorship from Blüthner pianos (Leipzig, Germany), EMJazz and Jazz Steps.  Mr Stan Tracey OBE is the Honorary President.<br />
 <br />
The Competition is for solo jazz piano so no drums or bass to hide behind!  Each pianist will have to perform to their maximum potential during the twenty minutes they have in the semi finals to impress our judges.<br />
 <br />
First prize is a Blüthner upright piano worth nearly £16,000. a recording session to make a CD and a National tour for all four finalists to be arranged by EMJazz and Jazz Steps.<br />
 <br />
Full details are available from <a href="http://www.nnjpc.com">www.nnjpc.com</a> or by phoning Mick or Andy Wilson on 0115 9701106.<br />
 <br />
If there is anyone from your company that would like to join us for any or all of the three days, please let me know as soon as possible so I can reserve your complimentary tickets.<br />
 <br />
 <br />
Many thanks,<br />
 <br />
Mick Wilson<br />
For and on behalf of the organising committee.</p>

Victor Prieto. &#8220;A fiendishly skilled accordionist and composer&#8221; &#8230;.&#8221;An effervescent improviser&#8221;&#8230;.&#8221;A dynamic jazz accordionist&#8221;<br />
The New York Times</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Prieto has raised the bar on what is possible on the accordion. His intensity and delight penetrate all barriers.<br />
The New York Post<br />
Prieto plays accordion the way Toots Thielmans plays harmonica or Dino Saluzzi plays bandoneon. He transcends the instrument and just plays music. The key features of Prieto&#8217;s music are lyricism and drama. He writes fine, memorable melodies, then works with the band to create tracks with a very clear dramatic arch, sometimes more than one, engaging and carrying the listener forward&#8230; He tells stories and paints pictures with music<br />
