Notes on the Program
By Fernando Gonzalez
Paquito D’Rivera has been tweaking
Mozart for a while.
Even as he was dazzling audiences in New
York as a member of the Afro-Cuban jazz
rock group Irakere in the summer of 1978,
invoking the spirits of the Orishas, Monk,
and Charlie Parker, D’Rivera was also leading the band on a piece he called “Adagio
on a Mozart Theme.” It was his arrangement of the lovely Adagio from Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto in
A major, K. 622.
But where Mozart was stately, letting his
emotions unfold with an almost somber,
measured elegance; D’Rivera was sunny
tropical, full of joy and bursting with humor —
and of course, as jazz musicians have been
known to do, he played the tune and then
he improvised.
Some, no doubt, must have thought of it as
some sort of musical prank. It wasn’t.
Looking back, it was a rather insightful statement—expressed in D’Rivera’s irreverent
style. It also foreshadowed much of what
was to come in his extraordinary career.
“It meant doing with Mozart what I did
with Cole Porter,” said D’Rivera in a recent
conversation, held in Spanish. “I mean,
Cole Porter wrote those great pieces for
Broadway; he didn’t write it for us, jazz
musicians, to improvise on them. And he
wrote them to be sung, and we play them
without the words.”
And then, there was something else. Formally trained as a classical musician, D’Rivera
says he has often daydreamed about how
the music of those hallowed European
composers would have sounded had they
been born in Havana, Caracas, or Buenos
Aires. “I love the idea of a Beethoven
sonata played to a Peruvian rhythm,” he
deadpans.
And so we arrive to tonight’s concert,
Around the Americas, featuring D’Rivera
with his sextet and the string ensemble
Quinteto Cimarrón. It brings together
European classical music, Latin American
and Caribbean music, and jazz. It also plays
as a summation, thus far, of a life in music
lived with curiosity, talent, and a “Why
not?” attitude.
“Jazz is a genre that offers so many possibilities,” he says. “I can play marvelous
melodies, but I can also improvise. That’s
an opportunity I don’t have with Brahms’
Clarinet Quintet in B minor. It’s a wonderful
piece, but if he just gave me a little space
to add a note here and there, something
that is not already written, it could be so
much fun. And why not? Why not interpret
it my way?”
On his most recent projects on record —
Jazz Meets The Classics, with his sextet,
and Aires Tropicales, with Quinteto
Cimarrón—D’Rivera re-imagines Chopin,
Mozart, and Beethoven (the Adagio
Cantabile of his Piano Sonata No 8, Op. 13
“Pathetique” as, yes, “Beethoven Perú”),
but he also swings through a mambo and a
cha-cha-cha and five movements from
“Aires Tropicales,” his piece for wind quintet arranged for strings.
A superior musician often disguised as an
entertainer, D’Rivera has the humor and
the musical tools to entice an audience
down a rabbit hole and then have it come
out in some unexpected place, both
vaguely familiar and new, a place where
Beethoven is Peruvian, Mozart swings, and
sometimes a mambo is not just a mambo.

Notas Sobre el Programa
Por Fernando Gonzalez
Hace rato que Paquito D’Rivera viene
metiéndose con Mozart.
Ya mientras asombraba audiencias en
Nueva York como miembro del grupo de
jazz rock afro-cubano Irakere en el verano
del 78, invocando a los espíritus de los
Orishas, Monk y Charlie Parker, D’Rivera
lideraba la banda en un tema llamado
“Adagio Sobre un Tema de Mozart”. Era su
arreglo del Adagio del “Concierto Para
Clarinete en La mayor, K. 622 ”.
Pero donde Mozart era majestuoso y revelaba
sus emociones con una casi sombría, mesurada elegancia, D’Rivera ofrecía una luminosidad tropical, llena de alegría y humor—y por
supuesto, y este es un hábito común entre
los músicos de jazz, después de tocar el
tema, se lanzó a improvisar.
Algunos, sin duda, deben haber pensado
que se trataba de una broma musical. Pero
no lo era. Mirándolo con la perspectiva del
tiempo, esa interpretación fue un pronunciamiento profundo—hecho, claro está, en
el estilo irreverente de D’Rivera. Es más,
ese momento anticipó mucho de lo que iba
a ocurrir en la que ha sido una extraordinaria carrera.
“Significó hacer con Mozart lo que yo hacía
con Cole Porter”, dijo D’Rivera en una
reciente conversación en Español, la cadencia Habanera en su hablar aun intacta.
“Quiero decir, Cole Porter escribió esas piezas geniales para Broadway; no las escribió
para que nosotros, los músicos de jazz, nos
pusiéramos a improvisar sobre ellas. Es más,
él las escribió para ser cantadas, y nosotros
las tocamos instrumentales, sin letra”.
Pero también había algo más. Educado formalmente como músico clásico, D’Rivera
cuenta que frecuentemente ha fantaseado
sobre cómo hubiera sonado la música de
esos santificados compositores europeos,
si hubieran nacido en La Habana, Caracas o
Buenos Aires. “Me encanta la idea de una
sonata de Beethoven con un ritmo
peruano”, dice muy naturalmente.
Todo esto nos trae al concierto de esta
noche. Titulado Alrededor de las Américas,
presenta a D’Rivera con su sexteto y con el
ensamble de cuerdas Quinteto Cimarrón
celebrando la confluencia de la música clásica europea, la música Latinoamericana y
del Caribe y el jazz. Al mismo tiempo, también sugiere un resumen de una vida musical vivida con talento, curiosidad y una actitud definida por el “¿Por qué no?”.
“El jazz es un género que ofrece tantas posibilidades”, dice D’Rivera. “Yo puedo tocar
unas melodías maravillosas, pero después,
si quiero, también puedo improvisar. Esa es
una oportunidad que no tengo con el
Quinteto Para Clarinete y Cuerdas en Si
menor de Brahms. Es una pieza maravillosa, pero si me diera un poquitico de espacio para yo meter una notica ahí que no está
ya escrita, sería tan divertido. ¿Y por qué no?
¿Por qué no interpretarlo a mi manera?”
En sus proyectos grabados más recientes—Jazz Meets The Classics, con sus
sexteto, y Aires Tropicales, con el Quinteto
Cimarrón—D’Rivera re-imagina música de
Chopin, Mozart y Beethoven (el Adagio Cantabile de la Sonata Para Piano No 8, Op. 13
“Patética” recreada como “Beethoven
Perú”) y tanto le pone su sabor a un mambo
y a un chachachá como a los cinco movimientos de “Aires Tropicales”, su obra para quinteto de vientos arreglada aquí para cuerdas.
Un músico de primer nivel, a veces vestido
de showman, D’Rivera tiene la gracia, el
sentido del humor y las herramientas musicales para seducir a una audiencia a seguirlo
por pasadizos propios de Alicia en el País de
las Maravillas — y también para sacarla del
otro lado, en lugares inesperados, lugares
que parecen ser, al mismo tiempo, vagamente familiares y completamente nuevos,
lugares donde Beethoven es peruano,
Mozart tiene su swing y donde a veces un
mambo no es simplemente un mambo.

Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Live in Cuba Exhibit
On View Now
Free and open to the public during scheduled performances
In celebration of Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Jazz Across the Americas season, our
current exhibit—Live in Cuba—tells the story of the Jazz at Lincoln Center
Orchestra’s week-long residency in Cuba in October, 2010. This historic tour
included five performances at the Teatro Mella in Havana, Cuba, in addition to
educational workshops throughout the country. The exhibit, located on the fifth floor
of Frederick P. Rose Hall, features the photography of Frank Stewart and Ayano
Hisa, plus rare video footage from the tour. In addition to an illustrious and
international career as a professional photographer, Frank Stewart serves as senior
staff photographer for Jazz at Lincoln Center. Ayano Hisa, a 2013 fellow of the New
York Foundation for the Arts, is a freelance photographer whose clients include Jazz
at Lincoln Center, Newport Jazz Festival, and Savannah Music Festival. Please stop
by the free exhibit to learn more!

THE APPEL ROOM
Billie Holiday Festival
Cécile McLorin Salvant Sings Billie Holiday
April 10–11 at 7pm & 9:30pm
Cécile McLorin Salvant has exploded on the jazz
scene as a masterful interpreter of song, with a
canny ability to select unique and rarely performed repertoire. Salvant’s odes to her predecessors encompass organic assimilation and
brave creativity. Such a skill set is necessary
when taking on the music of Billie Holiday.
Admittedly taken aback by Holiday during her initial introductions, the idiosyncratic giant of jazz
later became one of Salvant’s primary inspirations. As part of our Billie Holiday centennial celebration, Salvant delves further into her vast catalogue, with a performance that will surely ignite
a renewed appreciation for “Lady Day.”
Free pre-concert discussion nightly, 6pm &
8:30pm.
Michael Feinstein’s All or Nothing at All:
Origins of a Legend
April 15 at 7pm / April 16 at 7pm & 9pm
Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Jazz & Popular
Song series, Michael Feinstein curates a series of
performances dedicated to the life and legacy of
Frank Sinatra (1915–1998), as we embark on the
singer and Academy Award–winning actor’s centennial. During the first of these three dedicated
programs, Feinstein, joined by vocalists Ann
Hampton Callaway, Lynn Roberts, and Nick
Ziobro, as well as trombonist Matt Musselman,
captures the essence of Sinatra’s early years with
songs from his first solo recordings like “Night
and Day” focusing on the genesis of Sinatra’s
lesser-known musical relationship with the prolific songwriter Cole Porter. Feinstein’s appreciation for Sinatra runs deep, as shown in his own
critically acclaimed work in his honor.
ROSE THEATER
Billie Holiday Festival
Celebrating Lady Day
April 10–11 at 8pm
At the centennial of Billie Holiday’s birth, we celebrate the unapologetically organic artist and jazz
singer of monumental innovation. Vocalists Andy
Bey, Molly Johnson, and Sarah Elizabeth Charles
will perform repertoire such as ‘Don’t Explain,’
‘You Go To My Head,’ and ‘Strange Fruit.’ Bey is
a Grammy Award-nominated vocalist with a truly
resonant sound and a pianist of ultra sensitivity,
who has been recording as a leader for over
60 years. Molly Johnson is one of Canada’s greatest musical voices, noted for her infectious onstage energy. Sarah Elizabeth Charles is a rising
star vocalist-composer who participated in the
Betty Carter Jazz Ahead Composers Residency.
Joining Bey, Johnson, and Charles are music
director and pianist Peter Martin, drummer
Ulysses Owens, bassist Robert Hurst, and saxophonist Melissa Aldana.
Free pre-concert discussion nightly, 7pm.
Celebrating Joe Temperley:
From Duke to the JLCO
April 16–18 at 8pm
For the past 25 years, saxophonist and clarinetist
Joe Temperley has been the heart and soul of the
Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Temperley, now
85, has performed with the orchestras of
Humphrey Lyttelton, Woody Herman, Thad
Jones-Mel Lewis, Clark Terry, Joe Henderson, and
most notably, Duke Ellington, as well as in the
Broadway musical Sophisticated Ladies. In honor
of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra’s elder
statesman, band mates will debut arrangements
of Temperley’s Ellington favorites as well as his
original music. Managing & Artistic Director
Wynton Marsalis will present a three-movement
concerto, written as a dedication to Temperley,
about whose playing Marsalis says: “There is no
greater sound on earth.”
Free pre-concert discussion nightly, 7pm.
Except where noted, all venues are located in Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall,
Time Warner Center, 5th floor
