Countdown

Fine fusion: One of the coolest sounds in today's acid-jazz movement has been the organ-trio revival, taking the jazz/funk/blues fusion of the Hammond masters into the 21st century, adding hip-hop beats and other new spins. Sunday, one of the leading exponents of that sound, Robert Walter's 20th Congress, plays the intimate Emerald Ballroom at Jack Quinn's, 112 E. Fourth St., Covington; (859) 491-6699. Music at 9 p.m.; $10 admission.

FYI

Philharmonic debut: Cincinnati native Nicholas Angelich, 31, a pianist, made his New York Philharmonic debut when he stepped in to play Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5, "Emperor," on May 9 and 10, after pianist Maurizio Pollini fell ill. Angelich's father, Bora Angelich, is a violinist with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.

Janelle Gelfand

'Idol' update: He wasn't the "American Idol" or even the runner-up. But R.J. Helton got a record deal. Helton, who made it to the top five last season in the Fox TV hit, signed a deal to make a gospel album for Kirk Franklin's Gospocentric label.
