SUMMARY:John Menegon  Sound Embrace. Jazz Performance
DESCRIPTION:Chet Doxas tenor sax\, John Menegon bass\, Jean-Michel Pilc piano\, Jim Doxas drums \nJOHN MENEGON QUARTET “SOUND EMBRACE”\nSEPTEMBER 9 (2023) 7:30 PM\nCommunity Room @ Westbeth\n155 Bank Street\nenter through courtyard\nNew York\, NY \nDonations Encouraged! \nThe intuitive\, spontaneous nature of the music presented by Bassist & Composer John Menegon\, in collaboration with these exceptional musicians\, pushes the boundaries of today’s music on the world stage. The music is deeply rooted in the traditions that come out of the Free Bop era of Ornette Coleman\, Dewey Redman\, and Paul Motian\, to name a few. The music is created in the “moment of now!” Some of the melodies presented on Saturday will be freely interpreted\, sometimes letting the form create itself\, using melodic and harmonic expression relying in the trust of each player’s deep knowledge of improvisation. The group will be exploring some odd meters and different grooves\, and will include Menegon’s original compositions. The unique sounds in improvisation are unleashed by these four exceptional musicians who come from Paris\, New York City\, and Montreal. \n“Wonderful concert last night\, led by John Menegon\, with Jean-Michel Pilc\, Chet Doxas & Jim Doxas. Seriously swinging\, very accessible yet intriguingly unpredictable.” JEAN-PIERRE LEDUC\, Lunched Management & Booking @ Upstairs Jazz Club in Montreal\, JAN 2023 \nJOHN MENEGON (Bass & Compositions)\n“New York bassist JOHN MENEGON is in the line of George Mraz and Michael Moore; a harmonically sophisticated bassist with technical facility who swings hard when it’s called for.” Kirk Silsbee\, DOWNBEAT\nMenegon is a jazz bassist\, but is also a guitarist\, arranger\, singer\, and composer. He began his career as a musician in Montreal before moving to New York City\, where he spent ten years as bassist for two legendary tenor saxophonists\, Dewey Redman and David “Fathead” Newman. This experience provided a solid foundation for Menegon to continue his explorations as a bandleader\, composer and arranger\, and he has been composing and arranging music throughout his career. Menegon has released five CDs as a bandleader and currently plays with jazz legend Joe Lovano as well as numerous other stellar musicians. As an educator\, he spent several years teaching in the Jazz Departments of SUNY New Paltz\, Williams College\, Bard and Bennington Colleges. \nJEAN-MICHEL PILC (Jazz Pianist\, Composer\, Educator)\n“His densely harmonic reinventions of standards you thought you knew clearly shows a musical genius at work.” Eric Brace\, The Washington Post\n“A dazzlingly inventive pianist.” Nate Chinen\, The New York Times\nBorn in 1960 in Paris (France) he is now also an American and Canadian citizen\, as well as a self-taught pianist and composer. An internationally renowned pianist\, who has built an impressive reputation during 20 years in New York and through many tours around the globe\, Pilc has been living in Montreal since 2015 and teaches jazz and improvisation at McGill University. An improviser of impressive range and deep originality\, his performances are always intense\, unpredictable and high-flying. He has performed with numerous jazz giants\, and was musical director for Harry Belafonte. He has released 20 albums as a leader or co-leader\, and is on over 40 albums as a sideman. Jean-Michel is also a virtuoso whistler\, as documented on several recordings! \nCHET DOXAS (tenor & soprano sax) was raised in Montreal in a musical family and now lives in Brooklyn. Chet’s love of music was fostered by his father\, a professional musician\, teacher\, recording engineer and producer; and his older brother and drummer\, Jim\, with whom he regularly performs. Chet’s band\, Rich in Symbols\, is an ensemble whose repertoire is informed by his love of the visual arts. The music for this group is composed as Chet visits museums and stands in front of his favorite works with blank manuscript paper. Later\, the music and a projection of the work are presented simultaneously with live musicians in a concert setting. He has worked with a wide range of artists including Carla Bley\, John Abercrombie\, Rufus Wainwright\, Maria Schneider\, and Oliver Jones. When he is not touring he can be found in his Brooklyn recording studio working on his next projects or producing other artists. \nJIM DOXAS (drums) While studying at Montreal’s McGill University\, Jim established himself early on as a versatile percussionist\, and he was honored with Yamaha’s Rising Star Award in recognition of outstanding achievement as an instrumentalist. Jim has been heavily influenced by rock\, jazz\, Motown and World Music. What distinguished Doxas’ approach to improvisation is that he refuses to play it safe\, allowing the moment to dictate the kind of framework that will contain\, shape and guide the piece of music. Jim was the drummer in The Oliver Jones Trio for over a decade\, and is currently a lecturer and teacher at McGill University\, while also balancing an active performance schedule.

SUMMARY:New York Blood Center Blood Drive
DESCRIPTION:New York Blood Center will partner with Westbeth Artist Residents Council for the West Village Community Blood Drive on Saturday\, July 1\, 2023 from 11:00am to 5:00pm. Hospitals and patients rely upon a steady flow of volunteer donors to receive life-saving donations\, but\, hybrid office schedules & remote work coupled with a two-year period of almost no youth donations during the pandemic have made blood donation less of a priority. NYBC encourages all who are able to sign up and donate today. One blood donation has the ability to save up to three lives!\nNew York Blood Center Enterprises issued the following statement regarding Food and Drug Association (FDA) final guidance establishing a blood donor screening process based on Individual Donor Assessment\nMay 11\, 2023 – New York Blood Center Enterprises is driven by our dedication to saving lives and strengthening the health of our communities. We cannot achieve this without the help of generous blood donors every day. \nNYBCe has strived to build an inclusive environment that embraces diversity for all who engage with our lifesaving mission. For decades\, we have strongly advocated for scientifically-based changes to the FDA policies about men who have sex with men (MSM) and support the shift to individual donor assessment to determine eligibility. The FDA has finalized recommendations for establishing a blood donor screening process based on Individual Donor Assessment.\nWork has already begun to welcome newly eligible donors\, a process that includes adopting the new donor history questionnaire\, updating and validating computer systems regulated by the FDA\, training staff\, updating operational procedures and information systems. NYBCe expects to be able to welcome eligible donors in mid-November or sooner.
