Combined, these two brilliant men have composed for such award-winning films as The King and I, Wuthering Heights and How the West Was Won. After experiencing the islands, and working with similar arrangements on films South Pacific and Bird of Paradise, they found it impossible to put down their conductor batons and ignore the wondrous and alluring sights and sounds of Hawai`i.

Fresno >Food & Dining >
Catering >Sal's Mexican Restaurant
7476 N Fresno St, Fresno, CA | Directions 9372036.845799 -119.782995
Mon-Thu 11am-9pm ; Fri 11am-10pm ; Sat 11am-10pm ; Sun 10am-9pm ; Open 7 Days
Neighborhoods: Woodward Park
Owner does not honor purchased certificates! – We just moved to the area a few months ago and visited Sal's on Fresno St. with our children. We used a discount certificate from RestaurantdotCom both times. The food was good. On Mother's Day 2010, we decided to have our whole family from L.A. join us at Sal's using a $50 certificate towards the meal. Our group was 11 people and would have gone way over that no problem. The owner would not honor "the already purchased cert", and embarrased my wife and I in front of our family. We left immediately and don't plan to return. Buyer beware!!!
Terrible Experience – I had always heard great stories about Sal's "authentic" Mexican cuisine and it's famous salsa. First of all, the salsa looked (dingy brown) and smelled weeks old. Secondly, when my food arrived I was extremely disappointed with its substandard presentation and overwhelming use of cheese and sauces to mask what I uncovered was food that was prepackaged, shipped over from the Selma location, and reheated on location.
Sal's is about as far from authentic Mexican cuisine as possible. And at almost $6.00 for a mediocre margarita ($5.00 for a bottle of beer), $2.00 for an additional dollop of sour cream, and an extra charge for store-bought tortillas (which should come standard at a MEXICAN restaurant) you can feel the size of your wallet decrease and your health risk increase.
While the service was friendly I felt it was only in an effort to make you forget that you were being ripped off and that better food and service was just minutes away.
Save your wallet and your digestive track the pain of being insulted by a "Valley Tradition" of "authentic Mexican cuisine" and take your business elsewhere.
All around best mexican food – The food is great, this mexican food never lets you down. Sal's has the best salsa. There is plenty to pick from. There is also the quick and friendly service.
awesome salsa – the salsa here is so great. and it's even better now because you can buy it in the local grocery store. great mexican food, plus it's quick!
best authentic mexican food in fresno. – their refried beans are the best i've ever had! without a doubt the best mexican food i've had in fresno.

Is It Time to End Your Business Partnership? Here's How
by Caron_Beesley, Community Moderator
- Created: September 16, 2013, 2:29 pm
- Updated: September 16, 2013, 2:29 pm
Partnerships fail for many reasons. Misalignment of personality is possibly the first reason that springs to mind, but according to Michigan law firm Family & Aging Law Center , the two most common reasons that business partnerships fail is 1) failure to make an adequate plan, and 2) more importantly, from a legal perspective, failure to have a written partnership agreement that outlines in detail the partnership structure.
Why is the partnership agreement so important? Most partnership agreements are written up at the beginning of the business venture and outline how the partners will run the business – how business decisions are made, how responsibilities are divided, how disagreements will be resolved and so forth. A good one will also include a dissolution strategy, like a prenuptial agreement. Although not required by law, it can be extremely risky to operate without one. Essentially, a good agreement brings structure and agreement to the partnership – without one, partnerships run the risk of being run like separate businesses within the business, with each partner doing (or not doing) their own thing!
Without a partnership agreement, dissolving a partnership can get nasty and carry a lot of risk. For example, if a partner isn't paying bills on time or making regular contributions to pay off a business loan. Lapses and disagreements like these can quickly spiral out of control and impact your creditworthiness, relationships with vendors and so on.
Even if you do have a partnership agreement, you are carrying an element of shared liability. Each partner is liable for the actions of the business, its debts, and of course, you also have to split profits.
So what are your options when it comes to dissolving a partnership that's gone bad? Here are some considerations to bear in mind for those who have partnership agreements and those who don't:
- Change the weighting of the partnership agreement
You don't have to dissolve the partnership entirely. Perhaps you might change the weighting of the partnership so that you assume a majority share and with it more control over decisions and/or finances, while your partner agrees to remain involved, but to a lesser extent than currently.
- Buy out your partner or sell your share
If you want to continue the business, you could buy your partner's share, or sell yours if you want out but your partner doesn't.
- Legally dissolve the partnership
If you have a partnership agreement, revisit it and review your dissolution plan. Then take a look at the current state of your business to ensure a clean break. For example, have all partners completed all agreed duties? What's your business worth (use a third party valuation firm to help pinpoint this number)? What about leases, loans, and other contracts – how will the dissolution affect them and who will own the continued liability?
As you can see, there are many considerations, so make sure you consult a lawyer to help protect your interests in any dissolution or restructuring of the partnership. They can also help draft a dissolution agreement that protects you from future disputes or claims that may be brought against you.
It's also important to note that any dissolution of that partnership is governed by state law. Visit your state's website for more information about the process and the forms you'll need. It can take up to 90 days for the dissolution to become official. Once your partnership is dissolved, you can typically expect each partner to assume business assets and liabilities based on percentage of ownership.
- When there's no partnership agreement
If you didn't have a partnership agreement that outlined a dissolution strategy, try to work out terms together. If not, an intermediary may be able to help you resolve your dispute through mediation. Many law firms offer these services. Your final resort is a court-dictated decision which could be costly and may not provide the result you were looking for. Courts often divide assets and liabilities 50-50 regardless of any disputes.
Other factors to consider
Don't forget to let the IRS and state revenue office know that you are no longer in partnership the next time you file a return. Notify customers, vendors and others that your business structure has changed or dissolved. You'll also need to take care of other loose ends such as business licenses, permits and canceling a trade name or "doing business as" name with your local government. Refer to SBA's Closing Your Business guide for more information.

Comment: Awesome jacket!Fit great! No complaints!!
Comment: Comfortable , fits well, and it's good for warm and hot climate.. Price is great!
Comment: Bought jacket to battle GA heat and it works great. Great fit and well vented. Order arrived at my door in less than 24hrs with regular shipping.
Atl, Ga
Comment: I shopped your site for 4 days and read many reviews on the many jackets you have. I setteled on this jackets because it has all the features I was looking for, I'm a large feller, 6 ft 245 lbs and 51 thru the chest. I used your size chart and ordred the 2X, the fit is dead on, The only thing is I have a large neck and the jacket will not zip all the way up, no big deal.The price and service is second to none! Thank you for allowing us poor folks enjoy top quality products! I will continue to do my shopping Here.

Comment: Excellent value for a spring, summer, fall jacket I ordered a large since I have a 44" chest giving me a comfortable snug fit.
David Gilmore
Santa Fe,N.M.
Comment: This jacket fits reasonably well, but I found it tight around the neck. It would be nice to have some way of fastening the neck strap back when you don't want to fasten it across your neck - all it would take is another strip of Velcro.
Shipping was fast, but I got dinged by Canadian customs.
Halifax, Nova Scotia
Comment: I received my jacket today. I'm glad I ordered 1 size larger or it would not have fit. I tried it on and the fit was good. I like what I see and can't wait to try it. It is a little warm here in FL to use it now, but I will get to use it in Oct.
Jack Bonjean
Deltona, Florida
Comment: A lot more jacket than I expected. Comfortable riding in 50 deg weather with liner and 85 degree weather without the liner.
Los Angeles
Comment: This is one of the best values I've gotten lately. Quality product at an unbelievable price. The fit is perfect and it is actually better than I ever expected.
New Hampshire
Comment: Bought the gray one for the heat reduction. Got a black one just like it but its hot here in Houston. With the liner out this gray one does the trick. Still hot but nothing like the black one. Order at least a size up, or two.
Comment: Everything I hoped for and more. Over one hundred degrees and the mesh is keeping me cool. At this price it's a steal. Metal zippers good stiching good protection . Don't hesitate.
Comment: I bought this for my husband, who rides his motorcycle daily to work. With the 100+ temps, his leather jacket wasn't even an option. He has been able to wear this and is comfortable, although sitting at stop lights is still terrible. Fits great. Seems well-built.
Comment: Ordered me a mans silver jacket and my wife a pink womens jacket. Ordered on Monday and both Jackets arrived on Wednesday using free standard shipping!! Both Jackets were exactly as described and I was surprised at the quality! "Great Jackets at a great price!"
Charlotte NC
Comment: Not too bad for the money. Comes with a inner liner which I thought is surprising since its supposed to be a summer jacket, I guess there a cold summers every now and then. Good protectors, jacket feels a bit heavy but not too much. Was wearing it in the New Mexico 104 degrees and it felt like a constant hot air fan. But as soon as you sweat a bit it is the most efficient swamp cooler you could imagine. I like it and would recommend it. I ride a beefed up KLR650
New Mexico
Comment: 100 degrees in a black jacket. I could feel breezes at stoplights. The mesh is pretty awesome. Looks decent and wears well. Highly adjustable. The rear pocket was a nice surprise, forgot I was carrying a bottle of water till a sat down later. Safe riding ya'll.
IL- its freaking 100!
Comment: Great jacket, especially for the price. I have worn it now for a couple of weeks in the 90+ weather and it keeps me cool as I ride. Fit is perfect (6'2" and 230 and got a 2XL) and I feel secure with the armor. Overall a great buy.
Buffalo, NY
Comment: Took a 5 day trip with temps in the upper 80's wearing a denim jacket - miserable! I knew I
needed something better for the heat, and this
jacket is great! Perfect fit and very comfortable.
Comment: The jacket is well-made and priced low. The mesh caused more air turbulence over my skin so it makes me feel cooler even in hot weather. I have recommended it to my biking friends.
Cincinnati, OH
Comment: I'm very happy with this jacket. I don't think the pictures do it justice. The quality is much better than I expected, and the jacket lets in alot of air on hot days. I'm 5'10" 180lbs and the Large fit great.
Andrew Cox
Bothell, WA
Comment: I bought this jacket I can honestly say on a day that breached 100+ degrees the jacket was still comfortable while riding not so much when sitting still no wind to go through jacket but very comfortable while riding. onlyother complaint not really a complaint but only other thing is the jacket is HEAVY.
Gregg DeLong
Indianapolis, In
Comment: good quality. good price - slightly undersized by 1/2 inch. Recommend you use the high end numbers on sizing chart. Example: if a 48 suite jacket fits well but is snug, go up to a 50.
The jacket is heavy and well padded. Even with the ventalation, It's not really made for hot Houston summer months but is great for mild to cold temps.
north houston
Comment: Ordered the black jackets for my wife and me. Fit was right on the chart. Very nice jacket for the price. Nice removable liner. Reflective piping glows like a light.
Sugar Grove, IL
Comment: "Great Jackets at a great price!"
Comment: I've had this jacket a couple of months now and I'm very impressed. As long as the temp doesn't get over 90 it is not to warm to wear when the linning is out. Haven't had a chance to wear it in colder weather yet so I can't comment on that but my main reason for buying was to wear during warm weather and it definitely works for that.
Comment: WELL MADE...runs small, its heavy, I bought it for warm weather. too heavy for me. same for wife. I love Vega products and have several. This is a nice jacket. Just wasnt for me. GREAT JACKET, GREAT PRICE, GREAT FEATURES. armor is kinda heavy but effective if needed. THANKS JAFRUM
C. Harper
Chillicothe, OH
Comment: Nice jacket for the hot summer we have had. I like a little armor too.
Duluth MN
Comment: great value for the price good fit > neck a little snug
Comment: Nice fitting and fairly lightweight for an armored jacket. The only nock on it would be the collar is just a bit snug.
Lance Jurgensen
Comment: When I opened the package I was pleasantly surprised! I was glad that I got one size larger than noted on the size chart. It fits great and the quality seems very good. Have ridden with it on in 85 degree weather and was comfortable as long as you are in motion.
Comment: Got down to 40 riding home late. Threw the liner in and kept warm. Another suprise. This jacket is all I need. Comfortable from 40-100 degrees =amazing! Not waterproof, so I assume if you add water you'll get cold quick. Besides that good in almost all weather. Really impressed.
Comment: Delivery was two days. I am 6' 2", 235, size chart called for an XL. Ordered the 2XL and am glad I did. Like several others have said, the neck fits snug. Don't think the XL would have worked for me. Jacket is very comfortable. The velco adjustments on the arms for the armour is nice.
Phil Anderson
Charleston, IL
Comment: Got here super fast, ordered one size bigger then measurement and fits great. Looks a lot better in person then the pictures. I like this jacket better then my much more expensive jackets.
Comment: Great Jacket just for the hot weather and long trips.
North Carolina
Comment: completely satisfied. Size chart was right on
no complaints. Mesh vents well and much cooler ride that with old jacket.
Comment: my wife and i got us each one and these jackets are very well made, well worth the money so many pockets you have a place for everything, we love um, we ride in the hills and vallys in Arkansas and these work well with or without the liners, great jacket for spring and fall weather
pryor oklahoma
Comment: I was impressed by the quality of the jacket, especially for the price !
Comment: I have put this jacket to use. Too cold!
But I have tried it on. Seems to be well made. But the best part of all is that it fits correctly. No need to worry about fit. Just order your normal size.
Shepherdstown, WV
Comment: I purchased this jacket for me. I am a woman with long arms so I need to buy a mans jacket if I want the sleeves anywhere near my wrists. The jacket is well made and great in a breeze or on the move. I think I may have to remove the back armor for the summer, it makes a really wet spot and the temp is only in the low 80's. At 50 -+ a few degrees you will need a warm sweater, the wind will blow through the mesh.
Linda Hammond
Las Vegas, NV
Comment: I am 6'6" and 325 lbs, 52" chest and 48" waist (the kind information I wish folks put in their reviews of clothing). I ordered a 3xl and thought I was in trouble on the waist until I found zippers on both sides that eased the waist. Between the zippers and the adjustable waistand this jacket fits great. Sleeves come down onto my hands and fit into or over gloves to seal for wind. The body of the jacket comes down well below my waist when standing and does not gap with pants when sitting on my bike. I will say it is not a cold weather jacket. With liner in it works down to 50 or so, I can put a sweatshirt under and be good to 40 or so. I bought it for summer use so this is fine for me. The armor is well placed and when riding I don't notice it at all. All in all a great jacket, unbelievable price and I ordered it 2:00 Wednesday morning and had it at my house Saturday morning. Can't say enough good about the jacket and the transaction.
Cincinnati, Ohio
Comment: I purchased this for my husband. He absolutely loves it. It fits great (a little snug around the neck, but if it's left open, it's fine - I got him the 2X). The airflow is great and the jacket is surprisingly warm with the liner. The reflective stripes are very BRIGHT.
Austin, TX
Comment: Really nice jacket. Runs very small with liner. I normally wear 2xl to be loose & fit over layers. Ordered 3xl & could not zip it.
CD Oxford
Living Room
Comment: Nice jacket but too tight around neck and on arms. Order a size OR TWO bigger.
Ed in Houston
Comment: I ordered mine on Thursday, got it Sat (reg. shipping) and I'm delighted with it. Got a size bigger since in the hight temps, I didn't want it close fitting. I rode today when it's 90's and it felt very nice. A cooling rush of air is so good. Thanks Jafrum, you guys do sweet products, great prices and awesome service!
Andy Nichols
Comment: I've put a few thaousand miles on this jacket, and I'm very pleased with it. I got the grey one, and it stays cool up to about 85. Above that low speeds are a little uncomfortable. The liner is useless. I have a nylon V-neck windbreaker shirt that does a better job when the evening temp drops, and no zipper hassels. But seriously, safety equiptment at this price? Just buy the darn thing!
Greg B.
Comment: This is a great jacket at this price point. I was impressed with the fit and feel of the jacket. I rode with the liner in on a fifty degree morning and was very surprised how well it kept the wind out. It also was very comfortable with the liner out on an eighty degree afternoon. The armor is comfortable as well, with no rubbing or stiff areas. A great jacket for the price.
Doug Morris
Comment: Great jacket and is awesome fit. Outstanding price for product and really surprised on good quality. Recommend for your next riding jacket.
Comment: I just got into biking and was looking for a good three season jacket. A colleague mentioned the Jafrum website to me and I was pleased to find a wide selection of jackets at very competitive prices.
I chose the Vega Mainstay jacket and was very pleased with the quality and fit. I ordered (1) size up as was recommended by others and it fits awesome. I have worn it without the liner in 85 degree weather and was amazed at how cool I felt with it on. I have also worn it in on a couple of 40 degree mornings with an Y
Underarmor base layer and stayed very comfortable. This jacket will serve my purpose for (3) seasons as desired.
You rock Jafrum.,
Rick "Kruz" Williams
Mount Juliet
Comment: Great value for the money. The only negative I have is the sizing chart. I ordered the jacket one size larger than the chart recommended. As it turns out I had to return that jacket and purchase one two sizes larger. On a positive note this is my first mesh jacket. It protects, but keeps you cool on warmer days. You definitely feel the air blowing through it, but it is still comfortable.
EG Webster
Leland NC
Comment: Excellent Jacket. outstanding value. works well with the liner for cooler days. Highly recommend this jacket
Xenia, Ohio
Comment: This is a well made jacket I was impressed for the price
Glenview IL
Comment: A good quality jacket at a great price. Delivery was quicker than expected. I do recommend ordering your jacket one size larger. I usually wear an XL, but ordered 2XL. It fits just right. I have purchased other items in past from Jafrum and never had a problem. They are great to deal with.
Comment: Great jacket for the money! The 2x and 3x fit very well. Good quality material and the design features were a pleasant surprise. The gray/silver color and reflective piping looks great with our black and gray/silver CanAm Spyder. The liner works well enough down into 40 degree weather but belowthat an addition liner or clothing is needed. Without the liner, the venting design works very well.

Ricotta Berry Pancakes
recipe is from: http://blogs.kqed.org/bayareabites/
3 eggs, separated
3 tablespoons sugar
1 pinch kosher salt
Finely grated zest of 1 large lemon
1 cup homemade ricotta (store-bought works fine)
1/2 cup flour
Note: I added 1/2 cup fresh berries, just gently stirring in, until barely incorporated into the batter.
1. In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar, salt, lemon zest, ricotta, and flour.
2. In another bowl, using an electric mixer on medium-high speed or a whisk, beat the egg whites to medium-stiff peaks. GENTLY fold the egg whites into the ricotta mixture.
3. Heat 2 non-stick or well-seasoned frying pans over medium heat. Add a bit of butter to the pans, enough to coat the bottom.
4. Dollop heaping tablespoonfuls of the pancake batter into the pans, leaving a bit of space in between each pancake. You should be able to fit 3 or 4 pancakes into each pan, depending upon how large your pan is.
5. Cook for about 1 minute, until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the pancake to brown the other side, and cook until the pancake is cooked throughout, another minute or so.
6. Serve at once on warm plates with a little maple syrup drizzled over the top, or simply plain.

sweet and sour pork
Sweet and Sour Pork Tenderloin
1/2 lb. pork tenderloin (cut into bite size pieces)
1 bell pepper (red or green or a mix of the two) chopped
2 stalks scallions (only the white part, cut into 2 inch length)
1 piece fresh pineapple ring (cut into small pieces) (canned if you cant find it)
1 clove garlic (finely chopped)
Oil for frying
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon corn flour
1/2 teaspoon rice wine
Frying Batter:
1/2 cup water
2 oz. all-purpose flour
1 oz. corn starch
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 egg
1 teaspoon cooking
1 small pinch of salt
Sweet and Sour Sauce:
1 1/2 tablespoons tomato ketchup ( prefer Glen Muir organic brand)
1 teaspoon plum sauce
1/8 teaspoon Chinese rice vinegar (transparent in color)
1/2 teaspoon Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce
1 teaspoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon corn starch
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons water
Cut the pork tenderloin into pieces and marinate with the ingredients for 20-30 minutes.
Mix the sweet and sour sauce ingredients well and set aside.
Strain the dry ingredients * of the frying batter and then add in the egg, water, and cooking oil to form a thick batter.
When the pork is well-marinated, transfer the pork pieces into the batter and make sure they are well coated. In a deep skillet, add in the cooking oil enough for deep-frying. Once the oil is hot, deep fry the pork pieces until they turn golden brown. Dish out and drain on paper towels.
Heat up a wok and add in some cooking oil. Add in the chopped garlic and stir fry until light brown, then follow by the bell peppers and pineapple pieces. Stir fry until you smell the peppery aroma from the peppers and then add in the sweet and sour sauce. As soon as the sauce thickenens, transfer the pork into the wok and stir well with the sauce. Add in the chopped scallions, do a few quick stirs, dish out and serve hot with steamed white rice.

Nothing's changed. The lowly still return their meager wages to the company store in exchange for borderline sustenance.
As I've repeated since 1982, if you've got kids and your income is not upper-middle class or above, be a good parent and move somewhere else.
Our own latter day version of cartoony King Ludwig of Bavaria deigned to venture down from his fairy tale castle last week to remind the peasants who owns this cruel and unusual place.
Steve Wynn hisself sauntered through the badlands of Carson City and granted audiences to Gov. Veto El Obtùsé, the light-guv and even garden-variety legislators.
His most excellency let his temporary public workers know that the gambling industry will not suffer the indignity of a tax increase.
By royal proclamation, Le Grand Stefán declared his fiefdom "unhealthy." And what he sez, goes, at least in Vegas, where some media quake at the mention of his name. Others dare not speak it at all, kind of a Gomorrah South version of Harry Potter's Dark Lord.
"Right now, the industry has a real serious health problem," Wynn told reporters.
"He argued the (gambling) industry's recovery from the economic recession is endangered by the growth of casinos in other jurisdictions and said lawmakers must consider how to keep it healthy going forward," the Las Vegas Sun reported.
Neither major Sin City paper bothered mentioning that Wynn and his clansmen have long invested Nevada profits in those other jurisdictions. So he was basically complaining about competing with himself. The Reno Kazoo-Journal mentioned Wynn not at all.
"He said we need find a way to make sure education is funded in a way that doesn't include going back to (gambling)," stated Sen. Mark Hutchison, R-LV.
Mr. Wynn thus gave orders that he will continue his long record of enriching himself at the expense of school children. (The story of his "Show Me the Monet" art collection tax break will be posted with the expanded web edition of this column at NevadaLabor.com/)
I've been on the receiving end of what the gambling-industrial complex can do in an election. They can actually make people believe that their bosses or fellow church members (or both) will know exactly how they vote.
They make people believe that all hotels and related businesses will collapse if taxes are raised. I've seen them get away with convincing workers that electing pro-consumer candidates will put the power company out of business, thus causing all casinos to go dark.
They threaten to fire employees who sign any initiative petition they don't like, even though that's blatantly illegal.
Who's gonna fight 'em?
You and me. As always.
Be well. Raise hell. / Esté bien. Haga infierno.

Until a few years ago the term "bacteria" was synonymous with the term "prokaryote". Then technology revealed the existence of numerous forms of prokaryotes that possess distinctive differences when compared to those prokaryotes we refer to as "bacteria". Therefore, we now have two domains of prokaryotes: the Archaea (Archaeprokaryota; Archaebacteria) and the Prokaryota (bacteria, Eubacteria, or Euprokaryota).
Prokaryotes are ubiquitous, and vary in terms of their nutritional modes, reproductive styles, habitats and so on. Some are photosynthetic, some are heterotrophic, some are decomposers, and others are parasites. Some forms are unicellular, others are colonial.
Most modern bacteria have cell walls (except the mycoplasmas), and those walls are composed of peptidoglycan. Modern bacteria (except the mycoplasmas) exhibit these body shapes: bacillus, coccus, or some form of spiral (helical, spiral, or vibrio). Those bacteria with peptidoglycan cell walls respond to the Gram_stain as either Gram_positive (Gram+) or Gram_negative (Gram-).
The coccus forms (pl: cocci) of modern bacteria are spherical. They may exist as independent unicellular forms or create chains (streptococci) or clusters (staphlococci).
Bacilli (sing: bacillus) have a rod-shaped body. These cells may exist as single units or form chains (streptobacilli) or clusters (staphlobacilli).
The spiral bacteria all have a twisted body shape. Variations of the spiral body shape include, but are not restricted to, the corkscrew and helix.

In a single stroke, the Chicago Jazz Festival went from grunge to glamour over the weekend, thanks to a simple – and desperately needed – change of address.
For its first 34 years, the long-suffering, often cash-strapped event subjected musicians and listeners alike to dismal production values in wide-open, oft-muddy, acoustically awful Grant Park.
The funding remains meager, but for its 35th anniversary at least the fest moved up to Millennium Park, where it looked and sounded like a million bucks (which is $800,000 more than its undernourished programming budget of $200,000).
Though there were flaws aplenty at this edition, which continues through Sunday, and though the amateurish aspects of the fest haven't yet been stamped out, much of the music-making was profound. Some decidedly was not.
But all of it was presented in a setting worthy of the art of jazz. No longer were visitors forced to pass through a tacky midway of concession stands to reach inferior stages where listeners were forced to sit on the dirty ground to hear great artists. Instead, music lovers strolled through the exquisitely landscaped promenade near the Cloud Gate sculpture, then headed either to the superb Pritzker Pavilion for nighttime shows or to three nearby stages for afternoon performances.
The most magical moments on Friday and Saturday arose at the Pritzker Pavilion, where listeners could hear the music with a degree of clarity and warmth that the Petrillo Music Shell in Grant Park never approached. Moreover, the very layout of the Pritzker encouraged listeners to focus on music, rather than conversation, the permanent seating gently sloping toward the stage and effectively connecting audience to performers. I've never heard a Petrillo crowd as raptly attentive as the listeners at the Pritzker.
Two performances were unforgettable.
On Friday night, trumpeter-composer Wadada Leo Smith led his Golden Quartet and Pacifica Red Coral in excerpts from his "Ten Freedom Summers." This collection of pieces stretches roughly seven hours, and a better funded, more boldly imagined jazz festival would have engaged Smith to play this music over three evenings – as he conceived it – in a venue such as the Chicago Cultural Center, across the street from Millennium Park.
But the hour-long excerpt that Smith was allowed to play at the Pritzker proved more gripping, concise and ingeniously shaped than the recording of "Ten Freedom Summers" suggests. A master at uttering profound truths with bracing dissonance, stripped-down musical gestures and striking contrasts of instrumental color, Smith presided over music of searing expressive power. Even if you didn't know that "Ten Freedom Summers" grapples with our nation's struggles over civil rights, this music conveyed tremendous visceral and intellectual impact.
The mostly abstract video designs that played on the Pritzker's huge new LED screen, above and behind the performers, was the handiwork of artist Jesse Gilbert. Those visuals were attractive, but it was the music that mattered most.
Why two emcees blathered about the proceedings before Smith had a chance to play a note of it is unfathomable, all the more because the performance already had been delayed by Friday night's storm. But, alas, at the Chicago Jazz Festival, sophomoric lectures precede almost every performance.
In this case, even with all the unwanted verbiage, the emcees did not convey the single piece of information the audience needed, before or after the performance: which pieces were on Smith's program?
In order, they were "Thurgood Marshall and Brown vs. Board of Education: A Dream of Equal Education, 1954"; "Emmett Till: Defiant, Fearless"; "September 11th, 2001: A Memorial"; and the newest and last of the long-evolving collection, "The March on Washington, D.C. – August 28, 1963."
The other indelible set occurred on Saturday evening, when Gregory Porter affirmed his stature as potentially the next great male vocalist in jazz. It wasn't just Porter's magisterial instrument or freshly original songs or ineffably charismatic manner that inspired the most exuberant ovations of the festival's first three days. Beyond those achievements, Porter spanned a tremendous stylistic range, from the storytelling nature of "On My Way to Harlem" and the chanted tones of "No Love Dying" to the church-inspired exhortations of "Liquid Spirit" and the fiery declamations of "Work Song."
Later in the evening, the genre-stretching alto saxophonist Rudresh Mahanthappa showed plenty of fervor but not nearly enough variety in music from his album "Gamak." Pianist Jason Moran – who had played colossal solos for saxophonist Charles Lloyd at the Pritzker the night before – offered brilliant pianism in his "Fats Waller Dance Party," but the show wasn't as effective as it had been last year at Symphony Center. In part, that was because the Pritzker's enormously tall and wide stage made this partly theatrical presentation appear small, while an audience-participation segment turned a concert into something resembling a dance class.
On Friday evening, Geof Bradfield's septet played a vivid account of his "Melba!" suite and pianist Randy Weston joined Bradfield's band for Bradfield's radiant new arrangement of Weston's "African Sunrise," originally commissioned by the Chicago Jazz Festival.
This was a personal best for Bradfield, who with this performance placed himself among this city's leading composer-bandleaders.
The daytime stages near the Pritzker represented dramatic improvements over their ramshackle predecessors in Grant Park. This time, the side stages were fully enclosed tents with interior lighting, ceiling fans and lots of seating – though still not quite enough. The unwieldy, inefficient picnic benches ought to be replaced by additional seats, which also should fill in the open spaces toward the back of the newly named Von Freeman Pavilion, Jazz and Heritage Pavilion and Chicago Community Trust Young Jazz Lions Pavilion (that ridiculously cumbersome name has got to go).
These secondary stages -- do we really need to call them pavilions? – need some acoustical fine-tuning. The concrete flooring surely contributed to varyingly harsh sound in all three of those spaces and should be padded in the future, to absorb noise. Moreover, the stages in the Von Freeman and Jazz and Heritage venues were not high enough for people in the back – and even in the middle – to see the performers well. The stages need either to be raised or placed elsewhere in these spaces. And, periodically, some sound did bleed from one stage to another.
The Young Jazz Lions area faced two problems: Its location on the Harris Theater rooftop isolated it from the rest of the fest, and it was over-amplified for big bands playing a space this small. This vital facet of the festival, which nurtures young musicians and audiences, should be reinvented.
During the course of the weekend, the daytime venues offered engaging sets from tenor saxophonist Ernie Krivda; and an overly long but otherwise potent new work from pianist Satoko Fujii leading her newly created Orchestra Chicago, "Ichigoichie." Fujii said in an email that "there is no English word" to translate this term.
Music this complex, substantial and provocative always challenges language.
