2008 Melbourne International Jazz Festival

The 2008 edition of the annual Melbourne International Jazz Festival got off to a rocky start before the festival even commenced. The stage was set for a challenging and—one would still hope—successful festival down but not under. . Though the lack of a standing ovation at concert's end spoke volumes, it was a rare opportunity to hear such a legend and are confounded in the way the ensuing duet with Guy resolves itself. That in turn is usurped by some of the most torrential music of the entire program before a composed calm that's some distance from unmeasured is restored. The effect overall is of a deeply empathetic trio coming to terms with the moment with the aid of prepared material that's anything but inhibiting
