If I had known about it, I [probably]
wouldn't have had to go through radi-
ation and chemo. I figure African
Americans are my audience and they
might use me as a role model."
Mann, whose grandfather was a rabbi,
feels that spirituality is part of his life
although he doesn't practice Jewish ritual.
Away from New York since 1989, he and
his wife luxuriate in rural pleasures.
"My day is filled at my tempo
without the city energy," says the

jazz flutist, who is organizing three
music festivals for August, two in
Colorado and one in Santa Fe.
"There is so much to do that we
never have enough time to watch
television, which we use as a moni-
tor when we rent movies.
"One thing about doing 30 con-
certs a year is that I look forward to
every job. When I was working too
much, they got to be a chore, and
concerts should always be wonderful.

"If the sound on stage is good,
then it doesn't matter where the con-
cert is. I've worked with [Jazzfest
Artistic Director] Alexander Zonjic,
and I know he's a perfectionist, so
the sound in Birmingham should be
perfect." ❑

Herbie Mann performs
5:30-6:45 p.m. Saturday, July 22,
in Birmingham's Shain Park.
