A few random things that found their way into the AMN inbox:

Innovative sound-sculptor Basil Kirchin has passed away. Jazzman Graham Collier has a detailed site that is worth a peruse or two. Jenny Lin is a talented pianist who will be playing out in New York soon. Speaking of New York, the Bahai Center features jazz performances and the 20-piece ConceptualMotion Orchestra will appear there on August 23rd. And finally, a very cool announcement, that Bridge Records will be reissuing rare Library of Congress recordings for the next 10 years.
