A common myth about Kansas City jazz is that the tradition ended in 1940 with the fall of the Pendergast political machine. That obituary was a bit premature, as pianist Tim Whitmer and friends aptly illustrate with "Humorous Intentions" - Kansas City jazz lives! Charming audiences nightly in Kansas City's best jazz venues,Whitmer carries on/expands the tradition of Kansas City jazz with his inventive treatment of standards and fanciful original compositions. Classically trained, Whitmer followed the siren's call of jazz, after studying at the Conservatory of Music at the University of Missouri Kansas City (UMKC) with George Salisbury, a brilliant harmonically advanced pianist, who studied with Mary Lou Williams. Since then, Whitmer has led a series of renowned bands, drawn from local jazz legends and talented young players. Whitmer brings together these elements, an abiding respect for the tradition, enhanced by his own distinctive compositions magnificently rendered by a group of talented and experienced musicians for Kansas City Standard Time. |
