Watoto Children’s Choir has talent despite turmoil

StacyNick@coloradoan.com

We get a lot of news releases about events here at the Coloradoan.

When one on the Watoto Children’s Choir came down the pike, I have to admit I initially didn’t give it much attention. Then our Senior Content Editor Eric Larsen forwarded a copy of the release to me with the following note at the top: “This is an adorable little show.

Saw it back home a year ago.”

Now, I’m not saying that Eric can be a bit surly, but if he’s using the phrase “adorable ...” Well, that’s cause to give it a closer look.

The Watoto Children’s Choir will wrap up a sixmonth tour of the United States with two stops in Fort Collins. Despite the vibrant colored costumes, highenergy gospel and traditional African music, and smiling children, the show “Beautiful Africa: A New Generation” is performed to raise awareness to a story with a much darker beginning.

Each of the children who make up the choir has suffered the loss of one or both parents due to HIV/AIDS, war and poverty. They now live in Watoto Children’s Villages, which were established in 1994. Watoto works to provide for the physical, emotional, medical, spiritual and academic needs of children in Africa, raising them to be leaders in their com-

munities.

All performances are free and open to the public.

The organization makes money via donations at the concerts, as well as through CD sales. Recently, they released the single “Heart of the Father” with worship duo Brad + Rebekah. All proceeds will benefit the Watoto ministry’s work to help orphaned children and vulnerable women in Africa.

A REGIMENTED LIFE

Navy taught blues artist to find her own voice

Armory series on June 27.

She follows a similar philosophy with her music, and it’s one that has garnered her numerous awards, including a 2009 Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Blues Album.

We talked with Foster about how singing in the church choir and later playing funk in a military band prepared her for the stage.

Coloradoan: You grew up singing in a church choir.

Ruthie Foster: It has a lot to do with why I’m in music, really, because I come from a church gospel background and we sung regionally around Texas. That was my outlet when I wasn’t working in the tomato fields. It really introduced me to music.

C: Was there any doubt that you would go into music?

RF: Yeah, I guess there was. It’s one of those occupations where you get the warning from the parents that well, that’s not really a way to make a living and ‘what are you going to fall back on?’ As a young person going into college, I was convinced that music was where I wanted to be, but I did have in the back of my mind that I had a few other skills. I knew music would be a part of my life, though.

That was for sure.

I did try other things.

After college I joined the Navy because I wanted to know how to do other things and I knew that music would always be there... Well, I didn’t know, but I felt that it would always be a part of my life.

C: And even in the Navy, music was a part of that experience.

RF: Yeah, it was. My first year in the Navy was just about figuring out what I wanted to do ... I was happy

to bounce around for a bit. I ended up working in a helicopter squadron. I knew I wanted to work around planes. I worked in mechanics in the storeroom — I was kind of like the character Radar on “MASH.” And I would play my guitar and sing on weekends.

C: How did you end up in the Navy band?

RF: I got to the point where I needed more music, I guess. Growing up, I had been so indulged; music was

always around me and part of what I did. Then I went to college for music, and I think that I burned out pretty quick so I needed that break. But after about nine months or so, playing on the weekends wasn’t enough. I decided to start studying again to see if could make a go at the Navy band. I had no idea if I would get in, but I made it.

C: A military band sounds very regimented in general and inconducive to funk

music in particular.

RF: I knew the difference (between a military marching band and a military band). We had an Air Force band come when I was a sophomore in high school, and they blew us away. They played Top 40 and current music. Yeah, they had their ‘ice cream suits’ on — (laughs) that’s what we called them — but they were rocking the gym ...

The Navy school of music is very regimented. I had to unlearn everything I had learned in music school and relearn how the Navy does it, which is very regimented, but only because they want you to be the best. These were some of the best musicians I’ve ever played with — and I mean since. It was tough. You had to be a top reader when it comes to music, but it’s gotta have some feeling too because they throw you into this

funk band and then pitch you to these high school kids at an assembly and they will boo you off the stage. I had to have my stuff together.

C: What was the biggest lesson you learned from that experience?

RF: How to tour ... We toured constantly and I was the only woman in a sevenpiece band. Not to say that they were rough, but they were a bunch of guys. When you get a bunch of guys together, they turn into a pack. But they were lovely men. They were my brothers ... I learned a lot about discipline and a lot about honor. It sounds really corny, but it was about really representing your community and upholding your own citizenship in your community.

C: So what made you decide to leave?

RF: It was just time. The last thing I did musically was auditioning for The Commodores, the elite band in the Navy ... I got in and I actually turned it down. My audition was really just about seeing if I could even really do that. It was a validation more than anything for me. ... Getting in — that was enough for me.

C: Was it scary to embark on a new career?

RF: Yeah. It was very scary. You go from having the security of knowing where you’re going to be, where you’re going to live, even what you’re going to wear, for the most part, to finding your own voice in so many ways. When I got out, I applied for secretarial jobs in Charleston at recording studios, and I got coffee and sandwiches and answered phones and sung a little bit. I just did what I knew I could handle until I got my feet under me. Then I began recording my own stuff and playing at the beach clubs until I felt like I could do that on my own.

FILM REVIEW ‘JERSEY BOYS’

‘Jersey Boys’ just isn’t tough enough

By Bill Goodykoontz

JERSEY BOYS

Gannett

“Jersey Boys,” Clint Eastwood’s adaptation of the hit Broadway musical, could have used some of its director’s trademark toughness.

Not that Eastwood doesn’t have a sensitive side when it comes to making movies, as “The Bridges of Madison County” illustrates. And it isn’t as if he was trying to make “Goodfellas” set to music.

But it would have been nice if he had delved into a little more of the unsavory aspects of the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, instead of just hinting at them. (See “Bird,” Eastwood’s film about troubled jazz great Charlie Parker.)

This is not a major complaint — “Jersey Boys” is a good movie, and the performances are first-rate.

But Eastwood should have roughed things up a little more, like some of the

colorful characters in the New Jersey neighborhood where Valli grew up might have. Instead he settles for telling the tale in the most straightforward of fashions.

Interesting, but not as interesting as it might have been.

fall of one of the most popular bands of the early 1960s.

Stick with Tommy’s story.

It’s the most interesting.

Tommy DeVito (Vincent Piazza) tells us flat out if you

want to know the real story, you’ve got to talk to him. He grows up as a hood, running errands for local mobster Gyp DeCarlo (Christopher Walken). He takes Frankie (John Lloyd Young, who won

a Tony for the Broadway show) under his wing, which is not entirely a good thing.

talents as a singer. But Tommy is also headed for trouble in a hurry and ropes Frankie in on some of his schemes.

Ah, but that voice. That’s what saves Frankie. At least we presume so; Eastwood, working from the script by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice (who wrote the musical book), doesn’t spell it out clearly. Frankie just

And just as mutts make some of the best dogs, they also make for some tasty bottles.

Mutt Lynch Winery out of Sonoma County, California, takes mutts to heart perhaps more than most wineries. And their Portrait of a Mutt Red Blend couldn’t be a more delicious mongrel.

Formerly a pure zin-

kind of turns good.

He also turns around the fortunes of Tommy’s band.

So does Bob Gaudio (Erich Bergen), who would become the Four Seasons’ principal songwriter. Tommy is jealous of their bond, and he should be: It’s clear that, musically and otherwise, they’re leaving him behind.

It’s pretty standard stuff from there. They struggle to get signed, they can’t find the right material, things don’t go their way… and then they do.

They’re helped by pro-

fandel, Portrait of a Mutt now has a splash of carignane in addition to its zinfandel core, making its current vintage a true mutt.

The resulting wine has the zippy spice of zin and the bright cherry flavor of carignane, all in a light- to medium-bodied package with just a kiss of oak. The super smooth finish leaves

ducer and lyricist Bob Crewe (Mike Doyle), who has the contacts they crave, and the New York apartment they can only dream of. (Doyle is outstanding, playing the openly gay Crewe as smarter than Bob and tougher than Tommy, with a confidence that doesn’t allow either man to question it, even in those closeted times.)

The road begins to take its toll, but so do Tommy’s transgressions. He can’t leave the hoodlum life behind, it seems, and it will

cost him and the band plenty.

The film takes off when Tommy is front and center, becoming something more than a standard biopic with cool tunes. (The hits, like “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You,” are wellrepresented and well-done.)

That’s in part because Tommy has the most conflict in his life, but also because Piazza is so good.

There’s always some scheme brewing behind his eyes, and disaster not far

behind it.

Piazza’s performance is the most complex in the film (with the possible exception of Doyle’s). It’s also the grittiest.

“Jersey Boys,” for all its charms, could have used more of that.
