Ian Dogole & Hemispheres In Concert (DVD)
On May 23, 2003, The Marin Jazz Arts Society and The Mill Valley Chamber of Commerce presented Ian Dogole & Hemispheres in concert at the 142 Throckmorton Theatre in Mill Valley, California. The performance presented on this DVD reveals the magic that was "caught in a bottle" that night by multipercussionist Ian Dogole, 2-time Grammy Award nominee Paul McCandless on woodwinds, Sheldon Brown on woodwinds and Bill Douglass on double bass and bamboo flute.
Bay Area filmmaker Jamie Campana of FilmCamp Films has crafted an engaging portrayal of an enchanting concert event plus a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse into what makes the music of Ian Dogole & Hemispheres so unique.
Ian Dogole & Hemispheres re-energize compositions as diverse as John Coltrane's "Equinox," "Hijaz Oyun Havasi," a traditional Turkish piece, and a free improvisation featuring the Hang, (a stunning creation based on the steel pan), entitled "Smiles for Billy," dedicated to the late legendary Jazz drummer, Billy Higgins.
