NW Film Center Reel Music Festival & PSU Film Committee presents
Jazz Film - Pepper's Pow Wow (US 1996)
DIRECTOR: Sandra Osawa
Part of "I See You Now" - The story of Jim Pepper

For those who heard Portland tenor saxophonist Jim Pepper (1941-1992), he was an unforgettable jazz player. Of Kaw-Creek ancestry, Pepper was one of the innovators of jazz-rock fusion, a gifted composer who successfully melded Native American music with jazz, and an awesomely talented musician, equally at home with a ballad or playing burning, straight-ahead bebop. Seattle filmmaker Sandra Osawa's fitting tribute traces Pepper's life and musical association with such famed collaborators as Ornette Coleman, Don Cherry, Bob Moses, Larry Coryell and Charlie Haden, the impact of his songs such as "Wichi Tai To" and "Comin' and Goin'," and an astonishingly rich and diverse array of performances and recordings. (60 mins.) SANDRA OSAWA in attendance
