The trumpeter, who graduated from Juilliard only last year, has already received significant buzz in jazz circles. Gelin comes from the lineage of his impressive teachers &#8211; Wynton Marsalis, Nicholas Payton, and Roy Hargrove &#8211; and his debut album, <em>True Design<\/em> (self-release, 2022), received critical acclaim.

Both albums were fascinating explorations of the music that influenced McCraven but he proclaims his forthcoming one, <em>In These Times <\/em>(International Anthem, 2022), will be the most \u201cdefinitive expression of his artistic ethos.\u201d It will be fascinating to receive a preview of the record\u2019s pieces by the artist who continually pushes the envelope.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:420px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_tOrfolSIAho\"><div id=\"lyte_tOrfolSIAho\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/tOrfolSIAho\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/tOrfolSIAho\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/tOrfolSIAho\/0.jpg?resize=420%2C295&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"420\" height=\"295\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:420px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><strong>1:45 PM &#8211; 2:45 PM &#8211; Sons of Kemet (Fort Stage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The British quartet, Sons of Kemet, will likely cease to exist in its current form after this summer\u2019s tour. The group had a crowd frantically dancing to their fusion of jazz, rock, and Afro-Caribbean music the last time they came to Newport in 2019.

While it never saw active military combat, one can&#8217;t help but notice the beautiful irony that this summer&#8217;s Newport Jazz Festival has been taken over by a significant contingency from Britain. Along with Sons of Kemet and Nubya Garcia, drummer Yussef Dayes brings a solid representation of the creative renaissance occurring in the UK music scene. To many people,\u00a0<em>Black Focus<\/em>\u00a0(Brownswood, 2016) by his now-defunct duo with Kamaal Williams, Yussef Kamaal, was an early warning shot to the creative forces brewing in London. Since then, he&#8217;s released two albums,\u00a0<em>What Kinda Music?\u00a0<\/em>(Blue Note, 2020) with Tom Misch, and his solo debut,\u00a0<em>Welcome to the Hills<\/em>\u00a0(Cashmere Thoughts, 2020).

Due to Garrison contracting COVID, out of an abundance of caution, the group cancelled their Newport appearance. For posterity purposes, below is our original paragraph on the group. We wish them well and look forward to their performance next summer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jack DeJohnette Quartet with Don Byron, Matt Garrison, and Luisito Quintero (Quad Stage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jack DeJohnette has a long history of performing in fascinating groups at Newport. After all, this is the same artist who played drums with <a href=\"https:\/\/postgenre.org\/staging\/4567\/newport-jazz-part-vi\/\">Miles at Newport in 1969,<\/a> mere months before they recorded Bitches Brew (Columbia, 1970). Within the last decade, DeJohnette has brought to Newport the a<a href=\"https:\/\/postgenre.org\/staging\/4567\/rob-shepherds-favorite-jazz-albums-of-the-2010s\/\">vant-garde powerhouse Made in Chicago <\/a>with some of the AACM\u2019s foremost voices &#8211; the late Muhal Richard Abrams, Roscoe Mitchell, Henry Threadgill, and Larry Gray &#8211; and the jazz-rock fusion of Hudson with John Scofield, John Medeski, and Larry Grenadier. The legendary drummer\u2019s latest band promises to be equally enrapturing, especially with the inclusion of Byron on clarinet. Only about a week and a half shy of his 80th birthday, the NEA Jazz Master continues to guide the music forward.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4:20 PM &#8211; 4:50 PM &#8211; Maria Schneider Orchestra (Quad Stage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of NEA Jazz Masters, Maria Schneider is one of the more recent recipients of the lifetime achievement award. It is a well-deserved recognition. Since entering the scene in the 1990s, Schneider has become one of the most preeminent contemporary composers and bandleaders of large ensembles. Her orchestra\u2019s latest album, <em>Data Lords<\/em> (Artistshare, 2020), received significant critical appreciation, even becoming a finalist for the 2021 Pulitzer Prize in Music. The recording also built upon her fascination with the role of technology in our lives. In addition to being a gifted artist, Schneider is a copyright expert, having published several open letters and white papers on the issues of musicians\u2019 intellectual property rights. She\u2019s even testified before Congress on the matter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" style=\"width:420px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_d7pWHFFk49Q\"><div id=\"lyte_d7pWHFFk49Q\" data-src=\"\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/d7pWHFFk49Q\/hqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/d7pWHFFk49Q\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/d7pWHFFk49Q\/0.jpg?resize=420%2C295&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"YouTube video thumbnail\" width=\"420\" height=\"295\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/div><div class=\"lL\" style=\"max-width:100%;width:420px;margin:5px;\"><\/div><figcaption><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<p><strong>5:00 PM &#8211; 6:00 PM &#8211; Joe Lovano Trio Tapestry with Marilyn Crispell and Carmen Castaldi (Harbor Stage)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike DeJohnette and Schneider, saxophonist Joe Lovano is not an NEA Jazz Master. But it may just be a matter of time. Whether his soul jazz work with Jack McDuff and Dr. Lonnie Smith, his role in the incomparable trio with Paul Motian and Bill Frisell, or his long run on Blue Note, Lovano has performed in all styles of the jazz idiom. His most recent group, Trio Tapestry, is particularly enthralling. Across their two albums to date, the trio aptly use the compositions\u2019 fluid structures to give weight to both the notes and the silence between them. It helps that Castaldi is a multifaceted percussionist while Crispell is one of the most creative, though largely overlooked, pianists today.
