"live at the cellar" movie/slideshow.
There are many strange events taking place all over
the world in these days of change. These are the times when the simple things in life seem to take on more meaning, perhaps
more than ever before. Family is one of those simple things, and this recording is about three generations of a Canadian musical
family coming together after long and separate journeys apart.
It all happened under the teeming stars one hot night
in a small nightclub in the heart of the beautiful city of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. And it happened for all the
right reasons, with folks and all the relatives traveling from far and wide. From B.C., New York, London, and the icy lands
of northern Norway, they came.
The family had come together for the love, and the thankfulness,
and deep appreciation, that somewhere, somehow, someone forever dear had invented...New Orleans Jazz.
Yes, jazz. This
story begins in a little unpainted ranch house near a bad salty marsh lake called...Bad Lake...on the bald Saskatchewan prairie
on September 19th, 1927 with the birth of Lloyd Arntzen, who apparently knew right away what to do, as the faint melodies
of "Brother Can You Spare A Dime?" could be heard in his sweet baby wail.
And now, 77 wonderful years later, Lloyd
is joined onstage by sons and grandsons, musicians all, and it seems the story has just begun.
It's notable enough
when two generations in one family appear on stage together, but itıs unusual for three to be in the same ensemble. Music
is in the Arntzen blood, passed on from father to child to the grandchild: in this case, through sons Leif and Tom, and two
grandsons, Miles and Evan.
