You might have expected a wrap up post here for the recently departed Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival before the first of the typical Wednesday listings post was published?  Nope, still recovering from nine days of music, food and ....  plus I had a different take on this year's festival (you may have noticed in these pages) and the blog and I am still ruminating on that before "wrapping it up."  

OK, here's the live jazz in and around the ROC for the next seven days (check before you go on anything on Friday and over the weekend, given that it is a holday and all):
