"We'll be doing a lot of material from
our 16 recordings and a few new things
for all our shows," says Siegel, 58, a fre-
quent performer throughout Michigan.
"The same musicians don't belong to
both bands, but members of Siegel-
Schwall, and sometimes the whole
band, perform with Chamber Blues."
Siegel, who plays piano and harmoni-
ca with both groups, works with a
drummer, bassist and guitarist in

ith a partnership in the
Siegel Schwall Band, solo
performances with
orchestras around the
world and his collaboration with con-
ductor Seiji Ozawa in bringing a new
blues-classical sound to
national audiences, veter-
an blues man Corky
Siegel is one very busy
musician.
As part of a musical res-
idency, Siegel will present
lecture-demonstrations
Feb. 19 at Clinton
Township's Macomb
Center for the Performing
Arts and throughout the
week at schools and other
music centers.
When the instrumen-
talist-composer performs
with the four-man Siegel-
Schwall Band Feb. 20 and
21, audiences will experi-
ence the pure blues sound
he developed in Chicago
clubs, where Siegel has
played with the likes of
Muddy Waters, Little
Walter and Howlin' Wolf.
When he appears Feb.
22 with his Chamber
Blues ensemble and the
Warren Symphony
Orchestra, the blues will
be mixed with the classics. Siegel com-
posed music combining the genres at the
encouragement of Ozawa, who debuted
the style when he was a guest conductor
with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

Siegel-Schwall and a cellist, violist,
two violinists and a tabla-playing
drummer in Chamber Blues.
"Chamber Blues' [repertoire] usu-
ally is 100 percent of my composi-
tions, but one of the pieces we're
going to do was written by my vio-
list, Richard Halajian," Siegel
explains.

"It's called 'Serenade' and was
inspired by a conversation he had
with his father. Because a lot of
Richard's family lives in the area,
we're very excited about playing it.
Still touring as a symphony soloist
independent of his groups, Siegel got
his -career started in 1964, when he
met guitarist Jim Schwall at
Chicago's Roosevelt University, where
the two were members of the school's
jazz band. They soon began playing
together in clubs.
As they found larger audiences and
formed a quartet, the men left col-
lege behind and began touring with
name acts, such as the Allman
Brothers, Janis Joplin and Jefferson
Airplane.
