ON TOUR/SUMMER2010


ABRAHAM INC. feat. DAVID KRAKAUER, FRED WESLEY & SoCALLED Fred Wesley, one of the great masters of funk through his amazing trombone playing and arranging with the likes of James Brown, Bootsy Collins, Parliament Funkadelic and others meets up w. David Krakauer , SoCalled and Klezmer Madness in the search for that magic place where a combination of klezmer, funk, jazz and hip-hop can find a commonality of ecstatic trance.. ...AN ALL-OUT KLEZMER-FUNK-DANCE PARTY! with: David Krakauer/clarinet, Fred Wesley, trombone,  SoCalled/samp., accordion, piano,Brian "Radar" Ellis/rappe, Sheryl Bailey/guitar, Jerome Harris/bass, Michael Sarin/drums

BILL FRISELL TRIO BILL FRISELL is a man who?s done many things with many people, crossing into and over (and at times blurring) the lines of lush soundscapes, modern American composition, hyperactive noise onslaughts, straight-up jazz, and telekinetic improvisation.this is his new trio with viola player extraordinaire EYVIND KANG and the fantastic drummer RUDY ROYSTON

"CONTACT"  LIEBMAN/ABERCROMBIE/COPELAND/GRESS/HART CONTACT  brings together five master musicians in an exciting cooperative band.  Five top-drawer improvisers,  who  have been important contributors to the growth of the music spanning a period of nearly four decades.  Five composers, with a deep knowledge of the compositional elements of form, harmony, melody, and rhythm.  Five unique personalities with their own sound.  And five players who have worked and recorded together extensively in various combinations for many years, now joining forces to create an exciting new band.   The music of CONTACT  is sometimes fiery, sometimes lyrical, sometimes groovin', but always of the highest quality

DAVE HOLLAND y PEPE HABICHUELA FLAMENCO PROJECT Can a double-bass play bulerías? The answer to this surreal question is a definitive yes given by the jazz double-bass player Dave Holland. A veteran British musician, that played with Miles Davis in the 60s, has managed this thanks to his collaboration with the master guitar player Pepe Habichuela , a unique feat, for such an unflamenco instrument like the double-bass to sound ?jondo?, with top beat and ?quejío? (lament).

KIP HANRAHAN & BAND - "Beautiful Scars "There is nothing quite like Mr. Hanrahan's music - a steamy blend of rhythmic and melodic tensions, drawn from musicians of different traditions (Latin, jazz, rock), yet with something very much his own." Jason Weiss, New York Times. with: Kip Hanrahan/conductor, lyricist, Horacio "El Negro" Hernandez/trap drums, Xiomara Lauga/voice, Robby Ameen/trap drums, Alfredo Triff/violin, Brandon Ross/guitar, voice, John Beasley/piano, Luques Curti/bass, Fernando Saunder/bass, voice, Richie Flores/congas, Dafnis Prieto/trap drums

KRONOS QUARTET Synonymous with musical innovation, the Kronos Quartet is known for its unique artistic vision and fearless dedication to experimentation. with: David Harrington/violin, John Sherba/violin, Hank Dutt/viola, Jeffrey Zeigler/cello

SEXTETO ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ Born in East Havana, Cuba, percussionist and composer Roberto Rodriguez draws upon his influences of Cuban, Jewish, World Music, Jazz and New Music, making him one of the most versed performers as well as a unique artistic voice. with: Roberto Rodriguez/drums, Gilad Harel/clarinet, Uri Sharlin/accordion, piano, organ, Jonathan Keren/violin, Benard Minoso/bass

STEVE COLEMAN & FIVE ELEMENTS ASTRONIMICAL/ASTROLOGICAL MUSIC PROJECT Steve Coleman's compositional techniques are largely inspired by those of "classical" composers and include mirrored or inverted melodic ideas, work with intervals, fugues, etc. Still, the saxophonist admits to creating music that was destined more to be felt than to be listened to?Music is not a separate discipline from other activities created by humans. withSteve Coleman/alto sax, jen Shyu/vocals, Jonathan Finlayson/trumpet, David Virelles/keyboards, piano, Miles Okazaki/guitar

 

AVAILABLE ON REQUEST/SUMMER 2010

 

COLIN STETSON – SOLO, Colin Stetson is an absolute master of the saxophone. He has formidable breath control and circular breathing technique, a great sense of dynamics, and extremely impressive control over multiphonics and timbral changes: he can basically do anything that can be done with a saxophone (and maybe some things that can't) - Sean Westergard

GARY LUCAS different projects:“RISHTE” (Najma  Akhtar & Gary Lucas), “Chase the Devil” (Gary Lucas&Dean Bowman),  “The Golem” (Gary Lucas`s solo guitar score to the 1920 silent fantasy classic)

MARC RIBOT y LOS POSTIZOS & FRIENDS Marc revives his legendary party band the Positzos and sits in with one of the hardest grooving Colombian ensemble out of NYC today. One of the ultimate New York City party bands, Marc Ribot & Los Cubanos Postizos (aka "The Prosthetic Cubans) became a must see attraction in the late 1990s, its feverishlycookingshows buildaround arrangements of Cuban bandleader Arsenio Rodriguez - innovator of the son montuno. Recently revived and now going by the the simplyfied name of Marc Ribot & Los Postizos opens the format to incorporate musical influences from across the Americas but with the same latin based fervor. In this special evening, Marc Ribot presents Los Postizos billed along with the hard-groove of roots-rock cumbia outfit La Cumiamba eNeYe. 

YOUNG PHILADELPHIANS  Where deco meets disco meets decon; with Jamaladeen Tacuma, G. Calvin Weston, Bern Nix, Marc Ribot and Anthony Coleman. 5 professional, harmolodic noise improvisers with an uncommon love of Phillysoul and hardgroove. Ladies and Gentlemen... the hardest working men in punk/funk/soul/noise: The Young Philadelphians!!!

MOSTLY OTHER PEOPLE DO THE KILLING, the thrilling terrorist be-bop band, rising on New Yorks alternative sky with original music as an appreciable tribute to the memorable Ornette Coleman Quartet, with: Peter Evans/trumpet, Jon Irabagon/sax, Moppa Elliot/bass, Kevin Shea/drums

STEVEN BERNSTEIN  MILLENIAL  TERRITORY ORCHESTRA, rooted in the early jazz bands of the 20's and 30's and living in the present,  the band celebrates traditional American music, revisting the sounds of Cecil Scott, McKinney's Cotton Pickers, Andy Kirk, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Ellington, Ray Charles and more.
