(PORTLAND, OR)—Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble (PJCE) honors the Oregon-born saxophonist Jim Pepper (Kaw/Creek) with a concert of new music on Saturday, May 18th at 8 pm at The Old Church that honors Pepper’s music—performing his compositions “Remembrance” and “Bamasso”—and his creative process—fusing jazz with contemporary and traditional Native American music styles. Gordon Lee, a Pepper bandmate for many years, and Clay Giberson will both contribute new compositions to the concert. Guest artist 2 8 Tha Native, a hip hop artist and traditional singer and dancer, expresses his “tribally-influenced” perspective through Farnell Newton and Stephanie Kitson’s arrangements of his songs for our 12-member jazz ensemble. Hip hop artist Kunu, a creative partner of 2 8 Tha Native, will be a special guest.
7:00 pm and 8:30 pm sets Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble’s Executive Director Douglas Detrick steps out of the background to lead his own band in two sets of music. More Devotedly is both the name of the band and of the podcast hosted by Detrick that shares the stories of artists whose work addresses the most urgent issues in our democracy. Like a party with Pete Seeger, Duke Ellington, Ornette Coleman, and Studs Terkel all in attendance, More Devotedly is a cultural and political discussion set to music, featuring songs, snippets of interviews from the podcast, and a hybrid of old-time folk music, jazz, and electronic music played by Detrick on banjo, trumpet and voice; Joe Kye on violin, electronics and voice; Mike Gamble on guitar, and Christopher Johnedis on drums.
