The Jazz Voyager
This week I’m crossing the pond for the first time this year to La Ciotat, France to see my friend Delphine Nérot. She will perform at Chapelle des Minimes as a member of the Deene Trio, made up of accordion, bass and voice. The chapel is located in the southern part of the country on the Mediterranean Sea at Place Guibert, 13600.
The Protestant chapel is small, only 32 meters long and 6 meters wide. During the Revolution it was the headquarters of the Club des Antipolitiques, a popular 1791 society recognized as a subsidiary by the center of rue Thubaneau in Marseille. Adjoining the chapel is a synagogue on the left, open onto the car park Square Verdun, and on the right, a dance academy. The chapel boasts a beautifully crafted 300-year-old door. I know the acoustics will be fantastic.
This is my first time visiting this city and venue and I am so looking forward to this voyage. Although restrictions have been lifted, I am wary about the indoor air quality on planes and indoors with low ventilation, so this Jazz Voyager will still mask and social distance whenever possible.

The Jazz Voyager
Getting back on a plane once more and in an enclosed space I continue to mask up to protect myself because these variants are steadily morphing. People are still dying daily, maybe not at the rate of its height but nonetheless keep yourself safe.
This Jazz Voyager has decided to head up the East coast and make the sojourn to New England as his next stop. This is where a day earlier I will resume visualizing the autumn colors of this neck of the woods, as they say. I hope to get near some lake water to see the reflection which I’ve missed for many years. So my next stop is Old Lyme, Connecticut for a jazz encounter with bassist Matthew Parrish and saxophonist Houston Person at The Side Door. Located within the Old Lyme Inn at 85 Lyme Street 06371.
These two musicians, an elder master and a mature performer are perfectly matched to bring not only the romance but the heat as they most definitely swing together. This 68 seat venue brings an air of intimacy to every performance. For more information visit notoriousjazz.com/event or thesidedoorjazz.com. The club’s number is 860.434.2600.
