Website Launch

In case anyone is here for the unveiling, welcome to my new website. I made it myself. Hope you all like it. Pour yourselves a collective cup of tea and browse at your leisure. There’s stuff about my trio, some other bands I’m in, and the successful function band “The Boptet”. There is some updating to be done yet, as I get more and more excited and obsessive, but there’s lots of music up already, and links to follow. My Myspace page (see "links") is also at your disposal if you like that sort of thing, or if you’d like to use my token of friendship to tighten your stranglehold on the internet in-crowd.

Recording the Trio

09.01.06
I'm in one stage or another of getting "Jon Delaney Trio" recorded. We're currently aiming for a series of live recordings in October...or some other time. There are some new tunes ready, and some very old ones. I think live is the way to do it. Maximum opportunities for something really worthwhile to happen - minimum chances to get obsessive and wierd.

Live Recording @ Paris Cat 3+10 Oct '06

So, we now have confirmed dates and an excellent venue for the live recording. We will be at the newest jazz club in Melbourne, the Paris Cat on Tuesday the 3rd and 10th of October. Myles Mumford will be engineering the sessions, and mixing them down in the not too distant future. Of course, all comers are welcome. We're rehearsing some new material now, and things are looking good. Hope to see you there.

Rehearsals for the recordings on the 3rd and 10th of October have been great. Tom and Ronny play the tunes so well. We have a set list finalised with several new compositions, which you can now download from this site. It's looking like it will be really worthwhile. Do try to come down to the Paris Cat and catch one of the shows.

1 week to go

With one week left until the first show, the Trio recording project is looking good. Rehearsals are going really well, and the new tunes sound great. Our repertoire has gained a lot more breadth in the last 6 months, and we now have quite a varied programme.

Anyway, all that is left, except a bit of practice, is for a good crowd to turn up and make the whole thing really work, so check out the dates on the GIGs page, and come on down.

New Project ideas

10.30.06
I've been thinking lately about new projects once the Trio record is out. These include:
A) a recording of Bach's "Art of Fugue" for steel string acoustic guitar quartet, possibly paired with some improvisations and original works for that instrumentation.
B) A group featuring one or more Clarinets in a modern, expressive, quite open setting. To be composed for. Working title :"Angry, angry, angry".

The first gig back in Melbourne, and the first gig for the new Quartet will be at Bennett's Lane on the 24th of Febuary at 9.30pm. The Group features Danny Healy on Clarinet, Tom Lee on Bass, and Ronny Ferella on Drums. We're developing a way of playing (mostly standards, some old french tunes, and a Beach Boys song) which avoids prior arrangements but encourages improvised use of the things which usually spring from them, like wide dynamics, textural variety, and effects like metric and key modulations. Hoping for an improvised chamber orchestral sound. Anything could happen...Hope to see you there.

Chevalier John Taylor Electric Guitar Ensemble

My long wished for baroque/classical electric guitar ensemble is on it's way. Parts are being distributed, and rehearsals are set to start soon for Bach's ART OF FUGUE! Very excited about this one. I've spent the last few weeks editing all the parts and everything looks good to go. The band is myself, Fran Swinn and Ben Edgar on guitars and Zoe Frater on bass guitar. Video and audio to be posted once things get going. If all goes well, next on the list is (perhaps) Beethoven's String Quartet in Bb Maj, containing the Grosse Fuge, but we'll deal with the Bach first.
