SUMMARY:Ithacasori: Kpop Jazz Jam
DESCRIPTION:Ithacasori: Kpop Jazz Jam \nInspired by the energy and creativity of the video game music (VGM) scene\, where communities of musicians reinterpret game soundtracks with jazz\, fusion\, and funk arrangements. The Ithacasori Kpop Jazz Jam takes this spirit and brings it into the world of Korean pop music. VGM jam sessions are known for their passionate fanbase\, improvisatory flair\, and collaborative nature\, and the Ithacasori Kpop Jazz Jam carries that same energy into a genre that has taken the world by storm. \nThe night kicks off with a set by the Ithacasori Jam Band\, performing jazz-infused arrangements of iconic K-pop tracks. These charts were specially crafted by Harry Pogorzelski-Ponichtera and Corey Stark\, blending rhythmic grooves\, colorful harmonies\, and plenty of space for improvisation. \nFollowing the opening performance\, we open the floor for an interactive jam session. Thanks to arranger Greg Smith\, we’ll have a library of over 20 Real Book-style charts based on K-pop hits\, ranging from smooth ballads to dancefloor bangers\, ready for instrumentalists and vocalists of all levels to join in. Whether you’re a seasoned jazz soloist or a die-hard K-pop fan looking to vibe with a band\, the Ithacasori Kpop Jazz Jam is a space to collaborate\, explore\, and celebrate. \nCome play\, listen\, or just soak in the groove. This is K-pop\, reimagined. \nSupport the downstairs!

SUMMARY:Ellen Pieroni & the Encyclopedia of Soul and Delaques
DESCRIPTION:Ellen Pieroni is a soul jazz saxophone player and multi-instrumentalist from Buffalo\, NY. She has been playing the saxophone since she was 8 years old\, and has been a sidewoman in a multitude of bands (including Folkfaces and Buffalo Afrobeat Orchestra) for over a decade. \nPieroni’s smooth-infused soul jazz band Ellen Pieroni & the Encyclopedia of Soul\, or EoS\, was recently featured on NPR’s All Things Considered as one of three “jazz stand outs” for the 2024 Tiny Desk Contest\, where Felix Contreras said that “soul jazz is alive and well with…Ellen Pieroni & the Encyclopedia of Soul.” Although the group is inspired by artists such as Grover Washington Jr.\, King Curtis\, and the Crusaders\, EoS puts an emphasis on new original music. The sound is driven by Pieroni’s captivating and soulful melodies\, supported by thoughtful improvisation from all members over deep pocket grooves. \n“When [Ellen] takes her solo\, it really warms my heart because I hear the same soulfulness of Cannonball\, or any of the sax players who played with Ray Charles back in the 50s\, or the more contemporary alto saxophonist David Sanborn.”\n– Felix Contreras\, NPR’s All Things Considered \nSparked by a mutual love of the band Stuff\, The Encyclopedia of Soul was founded in 2022. The band’s first recording\, I Know That’s Right (Live at The Beat Barn)\, featured local legend Darryl Washington (brother of Grover Washington\, Jr.) on drums. On recordings and on stage\, the band features a rotating cast of talented collaborators\, including Adam Bronstein (guitar)\, Isaiah Gethers (drums)\, Dom Missana (bass)\, James Benders (bass)\, Jacob Nicholson (keys)\, Tyler James (keys)\, and Marvin Cj Smith (keys). \nPieroni has released two albums with EoS: The Encyclopedia of Soul\, Vol. I (2023) and Soul Vacation (2024). The band has played the GrassRoots Festival of Music and Dance\, the Rochester Lilac Festival\, and the Erie Jazz and Blues Festival. EoS has shared the stage with Bernard Purdie\, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy\, BoomBox\, and Sophistafunk; and Ellen recently had a reel of hers shared by Vulfpeck with the caption “800 grit sandpaper… smooth.” \nIn addition to her music career\, Pieroni is a music educator\, teaching full time for 9+ years in the Buffalo Public School district\, 8+ years as jazz band director at Bristol Hills Music Camp\, and 3+ years at the Community Music School. She is also a promoter of local music with her company\, Lavender Haze Collective. \nMonday\, April 14th\n7pm\n$10/pwyc \nSupport the downstairs!
