Live performance and chat with Samuel Vas-Y
 
Self-described Singer Song Scribbler Samuel Vas-Y (pronounced vazz-EE) began life in France but uses Dublin as his homebase, picking up influences from both and a lot in between. On his most recent album, "Tickly Teeth," Samuel (who also uses the surname Arnold) presents a playful blend of familiar and foreign, with little touches of Serge Gainsbourg and Jeff Buckley popping out of the mix. Samuel Vas-Y is working on a new album and played a few tunes for Irene

Hi Irene and everyone.

Wow, you weren't kidding Irene when you said very soon you will be having a lot of folks come in.

Looking forward to Samuel Vas-Y tonight, but really Bikoff next week!

Robert:

Wow, usually we get all those strings from your show. Very interesting change of pace, thanks.

My family used to take me to Yugoslav cultural events at Prospect Hall. I even have some 16mm movies of us there.

Sax & Violins always works for me. And you can carve that in Brass, Percussively.

Van in DC:

As an aside - as of this very minute, the DVD we expected to be out by now (hoped I mean) of KaTe's Before The Dawn concerts is still missing in action. Not available. I guess it will be really good when it finally premieres.
  9:25pm
JakeGould:

Wow! Cool stuff, Rob. Was Grand Prospect Hall main Yugoslavian or just Slavic or not even that specific… Just Eastern European… There’s a Polish history to that part of the Slope that is all but washed away right now.
Avatar 9:26pm
Van in DC:

This seems like actually a rare treat for brass fans.

Thanks Irene, for this set.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:27pm
Irene Trudel:

Hi everybody! Just settling in for the evening here. Jake, as I was told when I first visited, the Grand Prospect Hall was an old German Opera House many moons ago. The Golden Festival took up residence there a few years ago, and the hall seems like the perfect setting.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:29pm
Irene Trudel:

Robert, you should post some of those movies to You Tube. I'll be there were some long-forgotten musicians who played those events. is there sound to go with it?
  9:29pm
Robert:

I really don't know, Jake. I know only from my few experiences there as a child. Not sure whether the content was specifically Croatian or also Serbian. I do seem to recall the titles in the outdoor movies they showed were in the accented Roman alphabet, not Cyrillic.
Avatar 9:29pm
Van in DC:

I went to an old German opera house in Frankfurt, WEST Germany. Many many moons ago. I think to see David Sylvian in concert. Or Japan. I forget.

Van, as for the KaTe video, I can be very patient. These things take time.

Irene Trudel:

Oh, and here's a link to the Golden Festival schedule. Rob W. and I will be broadcasting live from the Ballroom starting at 6pm EST. goldenfest.org...
  9:31pm
Robert:

Not sound movies, sorry, Ms. Trudel. I haven't even run them thru the Bell & Howell in many years, hope they haven't deteriorated too badly.
  9:33pm
Robert:

Mostly nitrate stock in the family movies. Only some of the later ones were on acetate, so better preserved.
  9:35pm
Robert:

Some 50' reels, some spliced into 200-400'.
Avatar 9:37pm
Van in DC:

Irene - Doug S. knows but maybe nobody else...did you know I was a music major in college? Performance? I intended to go to Juliard. Anyway, I could work my way around a few instruments. Brass mostly. Trombone, trumpet...etc.... which means I would be a starving high school band teacher today if I had kept that path lol
  9:40pm
JakeGould:

The fascinating thing to me about Park Slope is how it used to have a Little Italy (3rd Avenue between President & Union to 5th Avenue) and a Polish/Slavic area in the teens 20s. Virtually gone now. Happy some small remnants are still alive.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:46pm
Irene Trudel:

Wow, Robert, sounds like those are in great need of preservation/sharing. And Van, I did not know this about you. We all have a little music in our backgrounds whether as players or enthusiasts.
Avatar 9:50pm
Van in DC:

You nailed it Irene. I remember my own mother asking me when I was very young, "Why does music mean so much to you?" She just didn't get it. She never understood. And I was sad about that.

Not sitar, I agree. No idea what though. Bouzouki? okay..

Belated thanks for the Charlie Hayden. I was busy cooking while it was on and it brought a smile to my face. (Wish I could be at the tribute, but it's good to be listening here too!)

Oud, really? You know, I was going to say that, and then I thought, nah, can't be.

Well, they are close relatives.

Matt from Springfield:

@Robert: That sounds awesome, about Yugoslav dancing home movies. Is your family from there? I'm part Slovenian myself. I rescued some local (Steelton PA) folk LPs from my grandmother's house--Slovenian "tamburitza" and "tumbala" style bands.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:10pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Van: Lookin' forward to it!

@Irene: Awesome--youth ensemble! "Čoček", that seems to be Macedonian?
  10:12pm
Robert:

Matt, Mother's side was Croatian, although my cousin thinks Grandma was Serbian. I've got some Yugoslav 78s & LPs. I played some once for friends and was surprised to have them identify one track as "Buffalo Gals". I didn't know that song in English!
