SUMMARY:Micromassé
DESCRIPTION:Micromassé is a trio of established Portland musicians featuring organist Peter Dugas\, guitarist Max Cantlin and drummer Chris Sweet. Inspired by the great jazz organ groups of the fifties and sixties\, Micromassé also draws from traditional and contemporary African and Latin music. \n“You won’t miss a vocalist here. Micromasse\, a jazz trio featuring Max Cantlin\, Chris Sweet and Peter Dugas\, is as cool as they come; showing off some incredible chops with the finesse and nuance needed to create a true mood. It’s delightfully old-fashioned with enough originality. Standouts include Hinche and Ruelle Des Ursulines in this solid 10-song debut.”  \n– Dispatch Magazine

SUMMARY:PMA Films: When We Were Kings
DESCRIPTION:A free outdoor screening of the 1996 Academy Award Winning documentary When We Were Kings. Co-Presented by the Portland Museum of Art. Film starts at dusk (approx 8pm). \nIn 1974\, boxers Muhammad Ali and George Foreman came to the still-emerging and politically unstable African nation of Zaire for what Ali called the “Rumble in the Jungle\,” a highly publicized world heavyweight championship fight. Documentarian Leon Gast flew to Zaire to film both the fight and a music festival (featuring B.B. King\, The Pointer Sisters\, and Miriam Makeba) organized by promoter Don King. Gast’s footage was shelved for 22 years due to legal and financial problems\, but when it was finally released in 1996\, When We Were Kings provided a vivid portrait of the controversial Ali. At 33\, he was considered past his prime for the Zaire fight\, and his refusal to serve in the U.S. military on moral grounds was still an issue in the minds of many. But here\, Ali displays strength\, skill\, intelligence\, and tremendous charm\, making it clear how he became one of the most renowned figures in the world of sports. And\, while George Foreman is best known today as a genial commercial pitchman\, he’s seen here as a strong\, forbidding opponent\, not especially articulate and seemingly unstoppable. The film also features interviews with several notable fight fans\, including Norman Mailer\, George Plimpton\, and Spike Lee. A fascinating document of a great moment in sporting and cultural history\, When We Were Kings received an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature and won a Special Jury Recognition Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

SUMMARY:Swing Dance featuring Soggy Po Boys & Portland Swing Project
DESCRIPTION:Born on a snowy Fat Tuesday night of 2012\, the Soggy Po’ Boys have been honing their craft of New Orleans’ music as part of their Tuesday residency in their home town of Dover\, New Hampshire. In between local gigs they’ve fit in more than a hundred shows every year\, from festivals and concerts to politics-infused burlesque collaborations and street parades\, spanning Maine to Georgia.  The band is equally at home everywhere it goes\, though\, and part of the beauty of New Orleans music is that it’s celebrated and appreciated wherever it goes\, from the street to the theater. The Soggy Po’ Boys serve their jazz messy\, mixing brass-fueled mayhem with spirituals\, Meters-style old-school funk\, and the Caribbean side of the New Orleans tradition. NHPR describes the band in this way: “If you’ve been to Sonny’s Tavern in Dover\, New Hampshire on a Tuesday night\, you could be forgiven for feeling like you’ve stepped into a New Orleans jazz club.” www.soggypoboys.com \nPortland Swing Project is a local organization with a passion for swing music and dances of the 1920s to today. We teach\, dance\, perform and provide live and DJ’d swing music spanning a century to local venues. We’re also some of the friendliest people you’ll ever meet – we have a bunch of fun so come join us! For information on weekly classes and dances\, private lessons and special events\, check out www.portlandswingproject.com.
