The CD is a live recording of Simone's debut at the Kammerm usiksaal of the Philharmonie in Berlin\, which took place on November 22\, 2007. It includes J.S. Bach's French Suite No. 5 in G major\, BWV 816\; an d the world premiere recording of American composer Philip Lasser's Variati ons on a Bach Chorale. Of the disc\, she says\, "So much music written sinc e Bach has been influenced by him\, and the Beethoven and the Lasser are no exceptions. Lasser's writing is intricately crafted and encompasses a rang e of styles\, from a contrapuntal energy reminiscent of Bach\, to French Im pressionism and even jazz. Beethoven's Opus 111 sounds surprisingly contemp orary in this company. The first movement looks ahead to Liszt and the seco nd movement\, with its set of variations on a chorale-like arietta\, looks back to Bach and ahead to jazz. All three works are densely layered\, but a lso have a sense of freedom and directness of expression. Though they span almost 300 years\, in many ways\, to me\, they each feel grounded in the pr esent." Simone's debut CD\, a recording of Bach's Goldberg Variations\, was a surprise hit of 2007. It ranked No. 1 on the Billboard Classical Chart i n its first week of sales and was chosen as one of the best CDs of 2007 by The New Yorker\, The New York Times\, The LA Times\, Time Out New York\, iT unes\, Amazon.com\, Barnes and Noble\, and more.

Twenty years have pa ssed since Otero opened his ears to this wealth of ideas\, and pursued his vision of X Tango. On his Nonesuch debut\, "Pagina de Buenos Aires\," he ev okes a feeling of Buenos Aires through his innovative use of the bandoneon\ , the accordion-like instrument at the heart of all tango. But the world Ot ero conjures up is really all his own. Tango is a jumping-off point for an instrumental sound that boasts the improvisatory thrill of jazz within a mo re formal\, contemporary classical structure. On "Pagina de Buenos Aires\," his work is often short\, fast-paced and intense\, full of enough dramatic stops and starts to confound any listener that might be fooled into thinki ng this is simply dance music. As a composer\, Otero is both rigorous and p layful. His pieces at times echo the elegant nuevo tango of Astor Piazzola\ , but they also harbor a mischievous spirit that suggests Carl Stalling's i ngenious scoring for animated cartoons. He counters this uptempo material w ith romantic interludes redolent of vintage film scores. It's no surprise t hat he has recently written a piece for the always-adventurous Kronos Quart et.\n\nTrio Tarana is led by New York City based percussionist/composer Rav ish Momin\, who was born in India\, and raised in Mumbai & Bahrain. The cr eation of Trio Tarana in 2003\, fulfilled Momin's personal mission to creat e music that both reverently utilizes his native Indian musical traditions and is also reflective of the various cultures which have molded his life e xperiences. "Tarana" itself refers to a song-style in North Indian Classica l Music\, where nonsense syllables or mnemonic drum sounds are used to spon taneously create a fluid chant or composition. In keeping with their namesa ke\, the trio primarily utilizes Indian and East-Asian rhythms as the found ation for a new creative musical experience\; they also employ compositions that seamlessly blend written material with spontaneous group interaction. Of their debut CD\, AllAboutJazz.com had said: It is fair to say that Tar ana is without precedent in the world of improvised music. A true synthesis of North African\, South and East Asian motifs with classical organization and the immediacy of free improvisation has probably not existed prior to Climbing the Banyan Tree.

T he structure of Morgan's music begins with loop-based electronica. However he uses software of his own creation to subtly disrupt the loopness inheren t in this form. Every iteration of a loop has incremental changes\, which o ver time becomes something entirely different from its origin.

The program will feature two of Iannis Xenakis monumental string quartets\, ST/4\, 1-080262 and Tetora. (The remaining two quartets will be programmed at a later date.) ST/4 hail s from a series of groundbreaking works in which Xenakis employed stochasti c processes and the aid of a computer to determine nearly every aspect of t one production. This is not a work of personal expression\, but of contenti on with chaotic forces and with limited definitions of what music can and s hould be. On the other hand\, Tetora relies heavily on the expressive impac t of block harmonic chords with nary an extended technique to be heard. The program will also feature one of Joan Towers powerful quartets and the pre miere of dopamine by New York composer Jeff Myers.\n\nHoloscene is an avant -garde instrumental band based in Toronto\, Canada. Their sound combines or chestral-rock percussion\, distorted bass guitar and open-tuned guitars to form pieces of sequentially structured wordless music. Themes in their musi c revolve around purposeful ambiguity\, the natural world and the numinous. Formed in 2006 the band developed their sound during the making of their f irst EP "Nothing Is The End Of Everything" (currently available in North Am erica and scheduled for release in Europe in 2008). Straddling an area of m usic most commonly known as "post-rock" due to its instrumental nature\, Ho loscene are hard to pin down to any one specific genre and have had their s ound described as cinematic\, ambient\, industrial\, post-metal\, and orche stral-rock. The British writer Warren Ellis has described their music as "t ranscendental etudes"\, whilst the band members themselves refuse to rule a nything out.

El Vez\, aka Robert Lopez\, has been kicking around the L.A. underground musi c scene for nearly twenty years. He first appeared in the early L.A. punk b and the Zeros and then played in Catholic Discipline (which also spawned le sbian folk singer Phranc). While his records are excellent documents of the El Vez phenomenon\, the only way to get the full El Vez experience is to s ee his live shows\, which feature his band the Spiders from Memphis and the lovely El Vettes\, cleverly named Priscilita\, Gladysita\, Lisa Maria\, an d Que Linda Thompson. The best cultural reference points to help describe a n El Vez show are the Ike and Tina Turner Revue\, a Tom Jones Las Vegas gig \, the LSD episode of Dragnet\, and Elvis Presley's '68 comeback special. L istening to El Vez is akin to hearing the live-band equivalent of sampling. An audience on any given night can be treated to half a dozen costume chan ges and might hear bits and pieces of at least 200 songs\, not all of them Elvis recordings. For instance\, one of his medleys featured "You Ain't Not hing But a Chihuahua" and an instrumental version of the Beastie Boys' "Gra titude\," mixed in with the lead guitar riff from Santana's "Black Magic Wo man" laid underneath Rod Stewart's "Maggie May\," which melded into "En el Barrio" (aka "In the Ghetto") and finished up with the mandolin line that c oncludes R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion."\n\nHuman Hands formed in 1978 from the nascent L.A. punk scene\, but were more closely associated with what is loosely known as the Pasadena scene\, bands with more of an art influence than the average L.A. punk band of the time. The original members were Denn is Duck\, Juan Gomez\, Bill Noland\, Rick Potts and David Wiley. After maki ng a few recordings\, some notable opening slots and headlining clubs like Perkins Palace\, the band broke up at the end of 1981. Asked to open for th e reformed Savage Republic at the Knitting Factory in Hollywood in November of 2002\, Juan\, Rick and Dennis recruited Pierre Smith (formerly of New M arines and a continuing regular player in El Vez's band) as a second guitar ist and Jeff White (formerly of... well\, formerly a fan of the band and of the various members' other projects) to sing. Rick left the band in 2003 a nd was replaced by Marc Salata. This latest incarnation of Human Hands has played regularly at some of L.A.'s best clubs and as part of such special e venings as Club Kiss or Kill. They released a four-song EP in 2004 and will be releasing their first full-length CD any day now. The band has been fav orably compared to early XTC\, Talking Heads\, Television\, They Might Be G iants\, and early R.E.M. and their shows are consistently included in the " This Week's Recommendations" list in the L.A. Weekly.

T hriving on a solid fan base through MySpace and the online hip-hop communit y\, Taylor has gained considerable popularity and captivated audiences at s ome of the most legendary venues in New York City. In addition to his US pe rformances\, Taylor also toured internationally with the Yohimbe Brothers i n 2005. Taylor performed in Italy\, Austria\, Brazil\, Argentina and everyw here in between. MTV took notice of Taylor's skills as a producer and used his beats to promote the 2005 Video Music Awards.\n\nThere's good reason wh y jazz fans and critics alike are so excited about Lafayette Gilchrist. The young Baltimore-based pianist hit the scene hard with his debut\, The Musi c According To Lafayette Gilchrist\, and went straight to earning raves for his sophomore release\, Towards The Shining Path. Emerging from jazz legen d David Murray's Black Saint Quartet\, a group in which he still plays to t his day\, Gilchrist has an approach and presence that's drawn comparisons t o royalty such as Andrew Hill and Thelonious Monk. With his own band\, Gilc hrist leads a septet that's equally inspired by D.C. go-go\, old school sou l\, hard funk and progressive hip-hop. Introduced to Hyena Records by the i conic guitarist Vernon Reid\, Gilchrist is set to release his fourth album\ , Soul Progressin'\, with the acclaimed indie label on September 9. The pia nist has this to say about his latest recording: "Soul Progressin' is a red iscovery in the sense of what was and is still the most essential part of m y offering. Soul Power lives. Its roots are endless and wonderous. Its futu re undeniable. So we just want to celebrate about it a bit." SUMMARY:The Yohimbe Brothers feat.

The use of vernacular language and moder n staging is not so much a re-imagining as a restoration of the dramatic im mediacy that the original performances would have had. The result will pres erve the musical integrity of a period-instrument performance\, while also being thoroughly accessible\, engaging\, and fun to a wide variety of audie nces. \n \nPoppea (1642)\, written within a half-century of the birth of op era\, is still universally acknowledged as one of the great exemplars of th e genre. The opera tells the tale of Emperor Nero's affair with Poppea\, Ne ro's de facto execution of his tutor Seneca after the latter's attempt to s way him from his course\, Poppea's ascension to the throne in place of the exiled Empress Ottavia\, and Nero and Poppea's abandonment of their respect ive spouses and eventual wedding. \n \nThe inventors of opera\, of whom Mon teverdi was a leading example\, created a musical style with text set over a bass line. This allowed the singer--often accompanied by a single instrum ent--to be easily understood while delivering text at a pace closer to that in a spoken play than in later opera. \n \nThe style was a hit. The new wo rks were filled with beautiful music performed by young singers dressed in the high fashion of the day. Their passionate\, dramatic performances attra cted nobility and commoners alike\, and throughout the century\, operas wer e commercial ventures in public opera houses\, selling out long runs and ma king celebrities of composers and singers. \n \nOpera Omnia seeks to update this aesthetic.

He studied at Webster College (now Webste r University) in St. Louis\, Missouri\, where he discovered free jazz. Drop ping out of college and moving to Manhattan\, Zorn gave concerts in his sma ll apartment\, playing a variety of reeds\, duck calls\, tapes\, etc. He ev entually became a major participant in the fertile Downtown experimental mu sic scene.\n\nIn the mid 1980s he signed to the Elektra-Nonesuch label. Sin ce then\, Zorn has been quite prolific\, usually putting out several new re cords each year.\n\nIn 2006\, Zorn was named a MacArthur Fellow.\n\nEvery o nce in a while\, you can catch him live at Tonic club in NYC where he hosts jazz jams and marathon regularly.\n\nHis breakthrough recording was perhap s 1985's The Big Gundown: John Zorn Plays the Music of Ennio Morricone\, wh erein Zorn offered a number of often radical arrangements of Morricone's fa med songs from various movies. The Big Gundown was endorsed by Morricone\, and incorporated elements of traditional Japanese music\, soul jazz\, and o ther diverse musical genres.\n\nZorn owns the Tzadik record label and has w orked with a large number of experimental musicians\, particularly in impro vised music. He is inspired by other artists and different musical styles. He has a special attraction to underground artists and musical styles that are extremely loud\, wild\, or creative. He is perhaps best known for his w ork with Masada\, with Joey Baron (drums)\, Dave Douglas (trumpet)\, Greg C ohen (bass)\; Masada is an Ornette Coleman-influenced band playing composit ions based on Jewish scales. The Masada songs are part of the songbook with several different arrangements. These include the Masada String Trio\, Bar Kohkba\, and Electric Masada. He has also played with Painkiller (a mix of grindcore and free jazz in which he is joined by Mick Harris of Napalm Dea th) and Naked City (an often aggressive mix of jazz\, rock and thrash metal ). He has also worked with musicians such as Bill Frisell\, Gary Lucas\, Wa yne Horvitz\, Derek Bailey\, Cyro Baptista\, Trevor Dunn\, Mark Feldman\, F red Frith\, Erik Friedlander\, Keiji Haino\, Bill Laswell\, Arto Lindsay\, Mike Patton\, John Medeski\, Ikue Mori\, Robert Quine\, Marc Ribot\, Jamie Saft\, Kenny Wolleson\, and the Violent Femmes. He has written music for te levision and film\, which has been collected in the ongoing Filmworks serie s of records on his label\, Tzadik. Some of these are jazz-based\, others a re classical.\n\nZorn has also written several game pieces\, in which perfo rmers are allowed to improvise while following certain structural rules. Th ese works are in the main named after sports\, and include Pool\, Archery\, and Lacrosse\, as well as Cobra. He is also often noted for his postmodern \, sometimes extreme\, use of formal blocks\, units which he combines and c ontrasts in various ways. Zorn discusses his history and the musical philos ophy behind his early works in the book Talking Music by William Duckworth. \n\nMost recently\, he has become the principal force behind the opening of The Stone\, an avant-garde performance space in New York's Alphabet City w hich supports itself solely on donations\, giving all door revenues directl y to the performers. Zorn holds the title of artistic director.\n\nZorn has lived and worked extensively in Japan and performs and records under the n ame Dekoboko Hajime\, collaborating with and producing for numerous artists including Merzbow\, Otomo Yoshihide\, Melt Banana and of frequent collabor ator Yamatsuka Eye. Many of these artists have now released albums on Tzadi k and some regularly travel to New York where Zorn is based.\n\nLou Reed en ters the twenty-first century with his genius intact and his art in fact. A t this point in time\, he stands with a body of work which places him at a level of rock & roll artistry where few others dwell and most fear to tread . From his very first album\, The Velvet Underground and Nico\, his influen ce has been profound\, if not scary. And although that landmark album met w ith nominal commercial success\, it has sold many musicians on the possibil ities suddenly available to creative imaginations. Over the years\, Lou Ree d has been recognized as a primal and constant force in a field where "geni uses" come and go like so many fashion plates.\n\nReed's work transcends ti me\, with its beauty shimmering beneath frightening truths cloaked in the g utter. His observations and insight ring so accurately that he is often mis taken as the subject of his own art. We believe him completely. His complex visions of a temporary world in which the stakes are always rising as the bottom line grows uglier and more demanding\, are the gifts of a rock & rol l alchemist. Ashes to ashes\, dust to dust\, Lou Reed's gold is a must.\n\n The singer-songwriter-guitarist's works about madness and hope\, desire and treachery\, reflections and addiction\, are peopled by crackheads and inte llectuals\, angels and whores\, prisoners and enforcers\, wild children and diminished wolverine parents\, the lost and the found in the arms of a vor acious hunger disguised as life. These individuals are also confused by the ir own duality: accounts of memories\, nightmares\, visions\, shadows\, car toons and mysteries all entwined in Lou Reed's love for rock & roll and its unlimited potential for salvation.\n\nLou Reed's America exists in previou sly uncharted waters. Few have explored the heart\, soul\, brain\, underbel ly and dementia of this culture more persuasively or poetically. He present s jokes like assassinations\, love letters like injections and rooms with a point of view\, encompassing the bleakest dead ends and the highest skies. There are no victims\, only survivors. For over 30 years Lou Reed has writ ten the American history on record\, where the personal and political combi ne to create myth. His own mythology continues to grow\, like a great peaco ck\, wings spread - an Icarus in search of the sun.\n\nThe ultimate New Yor ker's Ecstasy is the latest leap for an artist whose talents continue to as tonish with wit\, daring and joy. Traveling across a musical landscape that moves from paranoia through various stages of discovery\, doubt and reaffi rmation\, it attains its apex with the postmodern symphonic power of "Like A Possum." This song follows in the stunning style and energy of "Heroin\," "Sister Ray\," "Coney Island Baby\," Street Hassle" and "Magic and Loss" - epic pieces articulating the convergence of pure poetry\, twenty-first cen tury blues and the drive of primitive rock & roll beats.\n\nEcstasy has son gs of undiluted cynicism cutting with Lou Reed's legendary blade\, while ot hers suggest a valiant\, yet weary\, romantic still in search of true love or its mirrored image. His songs sound and feel like no one else's. Reed's guitar playing has become human in its vastness\, every attack infinite in its precision and passion. Once again\, he is out to save lives with music\ , and as always\, Lou Reed's weapon is that\, like it or not\, he is one of the few rock & rollers with the artillery to succeed.

I might have even sold him some lemonade when I was a kid\, though I hear that wasnt his drink. The excess es of Hollywood go down the wrong side of the tracks and up the right side. The religious and experimental/alternative lifestyles have always thrived here because so many people come to Hollywood with dreams that get broken ( or come true) and need to be replaced. Id rather make art than make my drea ms come true. Id rather be interested and inspired. Flowers Up is about whe n the dreams come true. Cant Come Down was inspired by a famous Los Angeles preacher in the 1930s whose church became one of the most popular tourist attractions\, partly because of the solace offered to those broken dreamers .Smelly Bibles: When I was eight years old\, I was given my first Bible at Hollywood Presbyterian Church by a minister who looked like a football star /leading man. Around the same time my beloved dance teacher gave me a small bottle of perfume\, which I loved too much to use. After reading the story of Mary pouring her best perfume oil on Jesus feet\, I decided to pour my whole bottle of perfume on the Bible. Since that perfume was my only treasu re at the time\, it was an extravagant expression of faith. That smelly Bib le was one of my first attempts to make art.In one of the most important el ection years in the history of our United States\, I am bringing out a reco rd called Dont Do Anything. This is not a political statement. The line of the song its taken from is I love you when you dont do anything.

Until then Gregory had worked mostly at small clubs with predominantly black audiences (he met his wife\, Lillian Smith\, at one su ch club). Such clubs paid comedians an average of five dollars per night\; thus Gregory also held a day job as a postal employee. His tenure as a repl acement for Corey was so successful at one performance he won over an audi ence that included southern white convention goers that the Playboy Club o ffered him a contract extension from several weeks to three years. By 1962 Gregory had become a nationally known headline performer\, selling out nigh tclubs\, making numerous national television appearances\, and recording po pular comedy albums.Its important to note that no biography of Gregory woul d be complete without mentioning that he and his beloved wife\, Lil\, had t en kids who have become highly respected members of the national community in a variety of fields. They are: Michele\, Lynne\, Pamela\, Paula\, Stepha nie (aka Xenobia)\, Gregory\, Christian\, Miss\, Ayanna and Yohance. The Gr egorys had one child who died at birth but they have shared 42 years of his toric moments\, selfless dedication and tremendous personal love.Gregory be gan performing comedy in the mid-1950s while serving in the army.(See Black sin the Military). Drafted in 1954 while attending Southern Illinois Unive rsity at Carbondale on a track scholarship\, Gregory briefly returned to th e university after his discharge in 1956\, but left without a degree becaus e he felt that the university didn't want me to study\, they wanted me to r un. In the hopes of performing comedy professionally\, he moved to Chicago\ , where he became part of a new generation of black comedians that included Nipsey Russell\, Bill Cosby\, and Godfrey Cambridge. These comedians broke with the minstrel tradition\, which presented stereotypical black characte rs. Gregory\, whose style was detached\, ironic\, and satirical\, came to b e called the Black Mort Sahl after the popular white social satirist. Frien ds of Gregory have always referred to Mort Sahl as the White Dick Gregory. Gregory drew on current events\, especially the racial issues\, for much of his material: Segregation is not all bad. Have you ever heard of a collisi on where the people in the back of the bus got hurt? From an early age\, Gr egory demonstrated a strong sense of social justice. While a student at Sum ner High School in St. Louis he led a March protesting Segregated schools. Later\, inspired by the work of leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.\ , and organizations such as the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee ( SNCC)\, Gregory took part in the Civil Rights Movement and used his celebri ty status to draw attention to such issues as segregation and disfranchisem ent. When local Mississippi governments stopped distributing Federal food s urpluses to poor blacks in areas where SNCC was encouraging voter registrat ion\, Gregory chartered a plane to bring in several tons of food. He partic ipated in SNCC's voter registration drives and in sit-ins to protest segreg ation\, most notably at a restaurant franchise in downtown Atlanta\, Georgi a. Only later did Gregory disclose that he held stock in the chain.Gregorys autobiography\, Nigger\, was published in 1963 prior to The assassination of President Kennedy\, and became the number one best-selling book in Ameri ca. Over the decades it has sold in excess of seven million copies. His cho ice for the title was explained in the forward\, where Dick Gregory wrote a note to his mother. Whenever you hear the word Nigger\, he said\, youll kn ow their advertising my book.Through the 1960s\, Gregory spent more time on social issues and less time on performing. He participated in marches and parades to support a range of causes\, including opposition to the Vietnam War\, world hunger\, and drug abuse. In addition\, Gregory fasted in protes t more than 60 times\, once in Iran\, where he fasted and prayed in an effo rt to urge the Ayatollah Khomeini to release American embassy staff who had been taken hostage. The Iranian refusal to release the hostages did not de crease the depth of Gregory's commitment\; he weighed only 97 lbs when he l eft Iran.Gregory demonstrated his commitment to confronting the entrenched political powers by opposing Richard J. Daley in Chicago's 1966 mayoral ele ction. He ran for president in 1968 as a write-in candidate for the Freedom and Peace Party\, a splinter group of the Peace and Freedom Party and rece ived 1.5 million votes. Democratic candidate Hubert Humphrey lost the elect ion to Republican Richard Nixon by 510\,000 votes\, and many believe Humphr ey would have won had Gregory not run. After the assassinations of King\, P resident John F. Kennedy\, and Robert Kennedy\, Gregory became increasingly convinced of the existence of political conspiracies. Gregory wrote books such as Code Name Zorro: The Murder of Martin Luther King Jr. (1971) with M ark Lane\, world famous author\, attorney and documentary filmmaker\, whose findings published in the best-selling 1966 book Rush To Judgment Gregory credited with reversing the nations opinion on who assassinated the preside nt and the facts which contradicted the official government version contain ed in the Warren Report. Lanes book contained answers and facts\, which Gre gory has espoused in Numerous lectures from then until now. Lane and Gregor y have been best friends\, co-authors and have lectured together for over 4 0 years and both livein Washington D.C. Gregory and Lanes book on the assas sination of Dr. King was recently released under another title\, Murder In Memphis\, as a trade paperback.Gregory's activism continued into the 1990s. In response to published allegations that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had supplied cocaine to predominantly African American areas in Los A ngeles\, thus spurring the crack epidemic\, Gregory protested at CIA headqu arters and was arrested. In 1992 he began a program called Campaign for Hum an Dignity to fight crime in St. Louis neighborhoods.In 1973\, the year he released his comedy album Caught in the Act\, Gregory moved with his family to Plymouth\, Massachusetts\, where he developed an interest in vegetarian ism and became a nutritional consultant. In 1984 he founded Health Enterpri ses\, Inc.\, a company that distributed weight loss products. In 1987 Grego ry introduced the Slim-Safe Bahamian Diet\, a powdered diet mix\, which was immensely profitable. Economic losses caused in part by conflicts with his business partners led to his eviction from his home in 1992. Gregory remai ned active\, however\, and in 1996 returned to the stage in his critically acclaimed one-man show\, Dick Gregory Live! The reviews of Gregorys show co mpared him to the greatest stand-ups in the history of Broadway.In 1998 Gre gory spoke at the celebration of the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King\, J r. and President Clinton were in attendance. Not long after that\, the Pres ident told Gregorys long-time friend and PR. Consultant\, Steve Jaffe\, I l ove Dick Gregory\, he is one of the funniest people on the planet. They spo ke of how Gregory had made a comment on Dr. Kings birthday that broke every one into laughter\, when he noted that the President made Speaker Newt Ging rich ride in the back of the plane\, on an Air Force One trip overseas. In 2001\, Gregory announced to the world that he had been diagnosed with a rar e form of Cancer. He refused traditional medical treatment chemotherapy an d with the assistance of some of the finest minds in alternative medicine\, put together a regimen of a variety of diet\, vitamins\, exercise\, and mo dern devices not even known to the public\, which ultimately resulted in hi s reversing the trend of the Cancer to the point where today he is nearly 8 5% free of it\, and getting better every day.Gregorys going public with his diagnosis has helped millions of his fans around the world to understand w hat Cancer specialists have been trying to explain for decades\, which is t hat Cancer is curable. Gregory was honored recently at the Kennedy Center i n Washington D.C.\, by a sold out house and a tribute hosted by Bill Cosby\ , with special tributes by Mrs. Martin Luther King Jr.\, Stevie Wonder\, Is aac Hayes\, Cicely Tyson\, Mark Lane\, Marion Barry and many more.Gregorys friend\, Ted Terry\, initiated his first website\, in the year 1998\, http: //www.dickgregory.com\, which has now been redesigned and updated to includ e many of Gregorys books and record albums\, CDs\, and other information fo r those who want interact with the incomparable Dick Gregory. His most rece nt book\, Callus On My Soul\, (Longstreet Press\, Atlanta\, Ga.) which beca me a best-seller within weeks of publication\, is an autobiography that upd ates his earlier autobiography (Nigger)\, because as Dick says\, Ive lived long enough to need two autobiographies which is fine with me. Im looking f orward to writing the third and fourth volumes as well.In 2001\, Gregory es caped death once again when a massive tree fell on his car in a storm in Wa shington D.C. crushing it completely\, causing him to have to be extricated from the car by emergency crews. One witness said\, I knew the driver and his passengers had died when I saw the tree fall. Gregory said\, "I knew th at God had more work for me to do when I saw the tree falling. " He saved h is own life by driving into the oncoming lanes of traffic.

He works in a variety of genres\, including jazz\, electronic\, and film. Isham studied classical music at an early age and played trumpet \, piano and violin. The Isham family later moved to San Francisco\, where Mark found work in several of the local orchestras. He also became actively involved in the Bay Area rock and roll scene of the 1960s\, performing liv e with several of the local groups.\nHe was a member of a Marin County band called Beefy Red from 1970-72\, performing both on trumpet and soprano sax ophone. (The group also included guitarist Barry Finnerty\, who later playe d and recorded with Miles Davis\, the Crusaders\, and the Brecker Brothers\ , among others.) After performing in music venues ranging from Marin's 'Lio n's Share' to San Francisco's Fillmore West\, Beefy Red disbanded in Januar y\, 1972.\nIn 1974 Isham joined former Beefy Red horn player Phil Woods and drummer James Preston in The Sons of Champlin. The Sons of Champlin\, like Beefy Red\, were unusual in the San Francisco psychedelic scene in featuri ng a large brass section. Isham wrote and performed his recording debut on the instrumental song 'Marp' (a takeoff on the name of the then-new 'Arp' s ynthesizer) on the Sons' self-titled album\, released in 1975.\nDuring the 1970s\, he learned to program synthesizers and became active in the progres sive jazz movement. In 1976 Isham and pianist Art Lande formed a quartet ca lled Rubisa Patrol. They released two albums: Rubisa Patrol (1976) and Dese rt Marauders (1978). It was in this group that Isham surfaced as a solo tru mpeter with a strong Miles Davis influence.\nIn 1977\, Isham performed on t he Taj Mahal album Evolution (The Most Recent). This was the beginning of I sham's career as a sessions artist\, which continues to present day. He has worked with artists as diverse as Van Morrison\, Lyle Lovett\, Willie Nels on\, Ziggy Marley\, David Sylvian\, Hector Zazou\, David Torn\, Toots Thiel emans and Tanita Tikaram.\nIn 1978\, he formed a group called Group 87. Gro up 87 featured bassist Patrick O'Hearn\, drummers Terry Bozzio and Peter Va n Hooke (at different times) and guitarist Peter Maunu. All of these artist s would work with Isham in future solo projects. They released two albums: Group 87 (1980) and A Career in Dada Processing (1984).\nFrom 1979 through 1983\, he worked with Van Morrison's band playing synthesizer and trumpet o n four of his abums: Into the Music\, Common One\, Beautiful Vision and Ina rticulate Speech of the Heart.\nIn 1983\, he released his first solo album\ , Vapor Drawings. Its style is an atmospheric and deeply experimental blend of modern jazz and electronic music. It was also the first album released on the Windham Hill label to feature extensive use of synthesizers.\nThat s ame year he also scored the soundtrack for the Carroll Ballard film Never C ry Wolf. This brought immediate attention and subsequent film score jobs. H is second solo album was a compilation of these works titled Film Music (19 85).\nAdditionally\, in 1983\, Isham was invited to play with RMS and Gil E vans at the Montreux Jazz Festival. He flew in to Montreux and played the s ame night whilst extremely jet-lagged. The resulting concert was eventually released on DVD in 2004 on the Angel Air Record Label.\nFrom 1987 to 1992 he composed scores for the "Rabbit Ears Storybook Classics" series of video s and CDs. These were narrated by famous actors such as William Hurt and Gl enn Close.\nHis albums Castalia (1988) and Tibet (1989) were both Grammy-no minated. He won in 1990 with his album Mark Isham.\nIn 1992\, he published his first orchestral work Five Stories for Trumpet and Orchestra. The same year he earned an Academy Award nomination for the soundtrack of the film A River Runs Through It. During the following years he became a prolific fil m score composer. Some of his film scores include: Save the Last Dance\, Me n of Honor and October Sky.\nIn 1995\, he released an album titled Blue Sun . This was his first album to follow a mainstream contemporary jazz format. \nIn 1999\, he formed a group to interpret the music of Miles Davis's late 1960s through mid-1970s electric jazz fusion and released an album\, Miles Remembered: The Silent Way Project\, which was recorded live.\nIsham is a p ractitioner of Scientology. He lives in the Hidden Hills gated community in the County of Los Angeles.\nIn 2007\, his music\, "A Sense of Touch" from the soundtrack of Crash is featured in the Law & Order SVU Season finale "S crewed" SUMMARY:FONT Festival: Mark Isham END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT LOCATION:Le Poisson Rouge\n\n\nNew York\, NY 10012 SEQUENCE:0 CLASS:PUBLIC DTEND:20080917T213000 URL:http://culturemob.com/events/144708-font-music-or-festival-amir-elsaffa r-avishai-cohen-ny-new-york-manhattan-soho-10012-le-poisson-rouge?s=ical DTSTART:20080917T193000 UID:November 22\, 2009 08:36:46_84715915@diamond.culturemob.com DTSTAMP:20091122T083646 DESCRIPTION:FONT MusicThe Festival of New Trumpet Music (FONT Music) was cr eated to support new trumpet music in all its forms\, and to provide a plat form for emerging artists and creative pioneers.

Though deeply rooted in the bebop and post- bop tradition\, Avishai is taking jazz in new directions\, making waves as an improviser\, composer and bandleader. Originally from Tel Aviv\, he bega n performing at age 10. He toured the world with the Young Israeli Philharm onic Orchestra and went on to become the trumpet player of choice for many leading jazz\, rock\, pop\, studio and television projects. He received a f ull scholarship to attend the Berklee College of Music in Boston\, and in 1 997 he placed third in the prestigious Thelonious Monk Jazz Trumpet Competi tion.Avishai came of age as part of the fertile scene at Smalls\, the stori ed New York jazz club\, where he developed his artistic vision alongside su ch friends and colleagues as pianist Jason Lindner\, bassist Omer Avital an d vocalist Claudia Acua. Here the imperatives of jazz tradition and innovat ion were not in conflict\, but rather merged into one powerful creative str eam. Avishai flourished in an environment where hard-driving swing\, open-e nded funk\, Latin and Middle Eastern rhythms\, complex extended forms and f ree improvisation converged under one roof\, drawing enthusiastic audiences . All of Avishais diverse work\, as a leader\, co-leader and sideman\, is i nformed by this broad-minded legacy\, which has given jazz new vitality and relevance in the 21st century.Avishai made his debut as a leader in 2003 w ith The Trumpet Player\, a burning straightahead session with bassist John Sullivan (Roy Haynes)\, drummer Jeff Ballard (Chick Corea\, Pat Metheny) an d special guest Joel Frahm on tenor. His second album\, After the Big Rain\ , is the last part of The Big Rain Trilogy\, a series of recordings that is now nearing completion. The trilogy also includes Before the Big Rain (par t one)\, a large-group outing\, and The Big Rain (part two)\, a trio encoun ter with Yonatan Avishai on piano and Daniel Freedman on percussion. Avisha is music is alternately moody and joyous\, richly atmospheric yet beat-driv en and grooving\, suffused with compositional depth\, inspired improvisatio n and a profound world-music influence. Avishai plays open and muted trumpe t but also routes his horn through electronic effects that range from the d reamy to the snarling and distorted. Hes been developing these sounds over the course of the last decade. When I play effects\, I play a different ins trument\, he says. The whole concept changes. Avishais other credits range from touring with the celebrated French-American singer-songwriter Keren An n\, to sharing the stage with the great Bobby Hutcherson in the all-star Sa n Francisco Jazz Collective. In addition\, Avishai is the co-leader of Thir d World Love\, with Omer Avital\, drummer Daniel Freedman and pianist Yonat an Avishai\, a group with four recordings to its credit. He also leads a fu nk-oriented band with bassist Meshell Ndegeocello and drummer Adam Deitch\, and continues to perform extensively with the 3 Cohens\, which he formed w ith his sister Anat and brother Yuval\, both gifted reeds players. With his incredible instrumental skill and world-spanning musical interests\, Avish ai\, in the words of critic Ben Ratliff\, has all the power and tenacity he s going to need.AMIR ELSAFFARIraqi-American trumpeter Amir ElSaffar put his New York career on hold in 2002 to immerse himself in the music of his anc estry\, the Iraqi Maqam. Already an accomplished jazz and classical trumpet er\, having performed with esteemed artists such as Cecil Taylor\, Rudresh Mahanthappa\, Vijay Iyer\, and Daniel Barenboim\, and having won the Carmin e Caruso International Jazz Trumpet competition\, ElSaffar traveled to Iraq \, throughout the Middle East and to Europe\, where he pursued masters who could impart to him the centuries-old tradition. He quickly became versed i n Maqam and found ways to adapt the microtones and ornaments to his trumpet playing. He went on to learn to play the santoor (Iraqi hammered dulcimer) and to sing\, and he now leads the only ensemble in the US performing Iraq i Maqam\, Safaafir. This ensemble has researched ancient practices that hav e been lost in recent generations\, and is now reviving these sounds\, cont inuing the legacy of the great masters of the Maqam tradition. In 2006\, up on receiving a commission from the Painted Bride Arts Center in Philadelphi a\, ElSaffar composed Two Rivers\, a groundbreaking and emotionally-charged suite that invokes Iraqi musical traditions and frames them in a modern Ja zz setting. The recording\, recently released on Pi Recordings\, was descri bed by JazzTimes "fresh\, deep\, intensely performed music...an organic ama lgam\," and by All About Jazz as "a stirring example of the creative possib ilities of international jazz in the 21st century\," and by the Philadelphi a Inquirer as hypnotic and arresting. In addition\, Two Rivers appeared on the Boston Globe's Top 10 list of 2007\, Philadelphia City Papers top Jazz releases of 2007\, and was selected by the Village Voice critic's poll as t he runner-up Debut jazz release of 2007. Born in 1977 near Chicago\, Illino is to an Iraqi father and American mother\, Amir was influenced at a young age by an array of musical styles\, including Classical\, Rock\, Jazz and C hicago-style Blues. He was exposed to Iraqi and Arabic music at a young age \, but his interest in this music would not come until much later. He atten ded DePaul University in Chicago\, where he earned a Bachelor's degree in C lassical Trumpet in 1999. As a Classical trumpeter\, Amir recorded with Dan iel Barenboim and members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra on the 1999 Tel dec release\, "Tribute to Ellington\," and was a member of the Civic Orches tra of Chicago from 1997-1999\, performing with such esteemed conductors as Pierre Boulez\, Mstislav Rostropovich\, and Maestro Barenboim. As a Jazz t rumpeter\, Amir won two major competitions: the 2001 Carmine Caruso Jazz Tr umpet Competition and the 2001 International Trumpet Guild Jazz Improvisati on Competition\, and has performed with esteemed artists such as Cecil Tayl or\, Rudresh Mahanthappa\, Vijay Iyer\, Randy Brecker\, Miya Masaoka\, and Samir Chatterjee\, among others. Amir's journey into the Iraqi Maqam began in his 2002 trip to Baghdad as he was seeking out inspiration for his Jazz compositions and improvisations. What was supposed to be two weeks turned i nto six months\, as Amir became completely taken by the Maqam\, and was det ermined to learn as much as he could about this rich musical tradition. He began studying Maqam singing and learning to play the santoor (Iraqi hammer ed-dulcimer). In early 2003\, with the war looming\, Amir left Iraq and wen t to Europe to continue his research under the tutelage of Maqam masters Ha mid al-Saadi\, Baher al-Rejeb\, and Farida Mohammed Ali. Amir has now maste red a significant portion of the Maqam repertoire\, which has very few surv iving masters and is one of the most sophisticated and complex traditional music forms of the Middle East.

Led by Brad Lubman\, one of the foremost conductors of new music\, Signal includes all of So Percussion\, p lus members of Alarm Will Sound\, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Cent er\, Gutbucket\, and other leading New York ensembles. Signal made its firs t appearances earlier this year at the Bang on a Can Marathon in NYC\, earn ing praise from The New York Times for its "auspicious debut\, a powerful a ccount of Steve Reich's Daniel Variations\," and at the Ojai Music Festival in California\, where it was lauded for "deeply committed performances" (M usicalAmerica.com) of "gripping vehemence" (LA Times). "Music for 18 Musici ans\," composed in 1976\, is one of the undisputed masterpieces of American minimalism\, an entrancing 60-minute kaleidoscope of instrumental color an d shifting rhythmic patterns that unfold over a steady pulse. The sound wo rld of "Music for 18 Musicians" has influenced generations of composers no t only in the concert music world but in pop\, electronica\, and hip-hop as well. The effect created by "Music for 18" is often described as magical\ , as timbres of winds\, strings\, pianos\, and percussion meld in ever-chan ging combinations\, propelled by an irresistible pulsation. "You Are (Va riations)" comes to LPR in its first performance by a New York-based group\ , and will be heard for the first time locally with solo voices and ensembl e (rather than chorus and ensemble\, as performed by the Los Angeles Master Chorale at Lincoln Center in 2006). The 25-minute piece sets four aphoris tic truisms from the Torah\, the Talmud\, philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein\, and 18th-century mystic Rabbi Nachman of Breslov\, whose saying\, "You are wherever your thoughts are" gives the piece its title. With its interlock ing rhythmic patterns and multi-hued sonic palette\, "You Are" (Variations) is instantly recognizable as the work of the creator of "Music for 18 Musi cians." But it also provides a fascinating contrast to the earlier piece\, as Reich treats his materials with a newfound sense of harmonic freedom. Reviewing "You Are (Variations)\," the LA Weekly wrote\, "Like a jewel exam ined in changing light\, the text rises and falls through the instrumental texture. The marvel of the work is the newness of its expression\, the fres h sounds and messages Reich has found within materials that are already kno wn aspects of his musical language."

As founding members i n the 1960s of the nationally popular\, Cambridge\, Massachusetts-based Jim Kweskin & The Jug Band\, they helped to create a new style in American mus ical culture. Jerry Garcias first band (Mother McCrees Uptown Jug Champions \, a forerunner to The Grateful Dead)\, was formed after Jerry and Bob Weir heard the Kweskin Bands first album. They not only went for its music but also its look no more matching striped T-shirts and rehearsed jokes for th ese guys. It was finally okay to wear street clothes and be natural on sta ge. John Sebastian\, after playing in the Even Dozen Jug Band in New York\ , formed the legendary Lovin Spoonful to carry on the carefree spirit of hi s Cambridge heroes. It was the Kweskin Bands jug player\, Fritz Richmond\, who gave the Lovin Spoonful their name. Fritz also brought his hipster pe rsona to the folk and folk-rock scenes for all to emulate - his granny glas ses becoming the look for The Birds\, John Lennon and many others.Although Jim Kweskin & The Jug Band appeared to have a laid back\, spontaneous appro ach\, the group was not an easy one to copy. Their music seemed simple\, b ut it was often complex. The other jug bands of the day dropped out one by one. Aside from Fritz Richmonds nonpareil jug and washtub bass playing\, two of the most distinctive qualities of the band were Jim Kweskins clean\, rhythmic finger picking and Geoff Muldaurs emotional\, quavering voice. T o this day\, no one plays guitar like Jim Kweskin and no one sings like Geo ff Muldaur. They are singular artists.Jim and Geoff were brought back toge ther in 2006 for a Fritz Richmond memorial concert in Tokyo and their chemi stry was instantly re-activated. Theyve been doing select dates together ev er since. Jim has honed his dazzling picking skills\, developing new arran gements of American folk and jazz material. His singing is as joyous as ev er (no one can sing Rag Mama like Jim). Geoff returned to full-time perfor ming in the late nineties with his much-heralded album\, The Secret Handsha ke. Since then he has traveled the world\, playing his guitar and singing his heart out.When it comes to acoustic folk\, blues\, swing and ragtime\, Jim Kweskin and Geoff Muldaur remain unparalleled performers.

Then\, bare ly out of high school\, she took off for New York City. There she found a f ertile community of songwriters and performers- Suzanne Vega\, John Gorka\, Bill Morrissey\, Cliff Eberhardt\, and others- where she fit right in. Wit h beautiful flare for harmony\, Lucy was everyone's favorite singing partne r\, but most often she found herself singing as a duo with Shawn Colvin. Pe ople envisioned big things for them\; in fact\, The New York Times said it was "easy to predict stardom for her." But then Lucy dropped it all. Convin ced that her calling was in another direction\, Lucy left the musical fast track to pursue a doctorate in Psychology. Upon completing her degree\, Dr. Kaplansky took a job at a New York hospital working with chronically menta lly ill adults\, and also started a private practice. Yet she continued to sing. Lucy was often pulled back into the studio by her friends wanting her to sing on their albums. Then Shawn Colvin\, who was itching to produce a record\, hooked up with Lucy\, her ex-singing partner. They went into the s tudio\, and it all came together. When Lucy's solo tapes got into the hands of Bob Feldman\, president of Red House Records\, he was blown away. Sudde nly\, Lucy was back in the music business. She signed with Red House and st arted playing gigs and touring so much it required leaving her two psycholo gist positions behind.

Swinscoe back in 1999. At the time Jay was still an employee at Ni nja Tune in South London\, where he was responsible for export sales at the long-standing independent record label. Swinscoe arrived at London Bridge from Scotland via Yorkshire and Cardiff with a background playing bass and guitar in bands and DJing\, as well as a head full of ideas and influences\ , such as his love of jazz bass players\, rhythm sections and film soundtra cks. So while he knocked out Mr. Scruff and Coldcut records to Spain and Sc andinavia by day\, he began putting together the TCO album 'Motion' in his downtime. In 2004\, Swinscoe relocated to Paris\, which slightly altered th e balance of work between himself and France during the making of Ma Fleur (and was also responsible for its French title). Then in 2006 he moved agai n\, this time to Brooklyn\, New York. Jason is the first to acknowledge tha t this has had a direct impact on his creativity: I think the cities Ive li ved in have had an effect on my perspective both personally and musically. The dynamics of a city changes the energy and pace of all things\, but part icularly music. Ma Fleur: In Paris\, Jason began work on the instrumentals\ , which would form the basis of his new record. Having completed a rough ve rsion by early 2005\, he gave this to a friend who disappeared for 3 weeks and came back with short story scripts in which each track represented a sc ene. Jason then took this and worked some more on the tracks\, and in turn gave this back to his scriptwriter\, the two aspects of the project develop ing alongside one another. This yet-to-be-made movie gave Jason the emotion al and narrative impetus he needed to develop the pieces and\, in particula r\, led him even further into his exploration of song than he had previousl y gone. For me\, I think it became a natural evolution to enquire into that whole new world of the song form\, he says. Also I think the sceenplay exp eriment led to a need for a much more direct relationship to words and stor ies. So it still has links with film and narrative\, in fact was driven by it. The Current Band: Over the years\, the membership of Cinematic Orchestr a has gradually evolved. Alongside core members Swinscoe and Phil France is Tom Chant\, a fixture at left of centre jazz gigs all over the world\, sax ophonist Chant is known as one of the UKs top free jazz players. For Every Day young drumming legend Luke Flowers was recruited\, who had played toget her with France for a number of years as youthful stars on the northern jaz z circuit. New members for the current incarnation of TCO are Nick Ramm - a pianist from London who has played with Matthew Herbert amongst many other s and Stuart McCallum\, a guitarist from Manchester\, whose subtle\, six s tring antics have slightly changed the dynamics of TCOs sound on their new record. The shows will also feature vocals from Patrick Watson and special guests on selected dates.

Innovative\, original and occasionally spiritual\, Shindells so ngs weave tales that interchangeably champion the downtrodden\, exalt the d isaffected or wax empathetic to those lost to societys fringes. From his fi rst record\, Sparrows Point (1992) to the newest album Vuelta (2004)\, Shin dell has demonstrated a penchant for songwriting at once passionate and pro found. His songs are often slowly and painstakingly crafted until honed to perfection. Conversely\, he is also capable of writing tunes that are simpl y clever and amusing.Shindells songwriting is truly eclectic\, ranging from lighthearted ballads and adulterous love songs\, to dirges and diatribes t hat skillfully skewer politics\, prejudice\, war and religion. He has a uni que ability to morph into the soul of the many and varied personalities he casts as narrators in certain songs--songs that are veritable novellas fram ed in haunting acoustic melodies\, sometimes including cryptic\, revelation s through the eyes of a woman.OLLABELLE"Ollabelle came together because of these musicians' love of this music\, without thought of success or career or any of the other trappings of the modern professional music business. It has great value to our culture\, adding new life to a tradition that is an important part of who we are. But mostly\, they sound great. They sing gre at and they play great\, and they are wonderful people." -T-Bone Burnett Am y Helmvocals\, mandola Byron Isaacsvocals\, bass\, dobro Tony Leonevocals\, drums\, percussion Fiona McBainvocals\, acoustic and electric guitars Glen n Patschavocals\, keyboards\, accordion A collection of songs of hard times \, loss\, compassion and hope" is how Fiona McBain describes Riverside Batt le Songs\, Ollabelle's second album and Verve Forecast debut. The 13-song s et finds the New York quintet building upon the foundation of its self-titl ed 2004 debut\, drawing from a deep well of gospel\, blues\, bluegrass\, an d country influences to create timelessly resonant music that honors the in tegrity of its sources while remaining effortlessly contemporary. A multi-t alented\, democratic collective whose participants share vocal and songwrit ing duties\, Ollabelle gains strength from its members' shared sense of mis sion\, as well as their diverse musical and personal backgrounds. Although the group initially began as a casual sideline to the musicians' individual projects\, it quickly evolved into a full-time creative entity with an unm istakable life of its own. Where Ollabelle's gospel-steeped debut album emp hasized distinctive adaptations of traditional material\, Riverside Battle Songs produced by veteran producer/multi-instrumentalist Larry Campbell\, best known for his lengthy stint in Bob Dylan's band\, and mixed by longtim e admirer T Bone Burnett showcases the group's own compositions. Such memo rable originals as "Heaven's Pearls\," "Fall Back\," "Dream the Fall\," "Bl ue Northern Lights" and "Reach for Love" offer subtly riveting examples of the bandmates' vocal and instrumental interplay\, mining an evocative palet te of acoustic and electric textures to create singularly expressive music.

He studied at Webster Colleg e (now Webster University) in St. Louis\, Missouri\, where he discovered fr ee jazz. Dropping out of college and moving to Manhattan\, Zorn gave concer ts in his small apartment\, playing a variety of reeds\, duck calls\, tapes \, etc. He eventually became a major participant in the fertile Downtown ex perimental music scene.\n\nIn the mid 1980s he signed to the Elektra-Nonesu ch label. Since then\, Zorn has been quite prolific\, usually putting out s everal new records each year.\n\nIn 2006\, Zorn was named a MacArthur Fello w.\n\nEvery once in a while\, you can catch him live at Tonic club in NYC w here he hosts jazz jams and marathon regularly.\n\nHis breakthrough recordi ng was perhaps 1985's The Big Gundown: John Zorn Plays the Music of Ennio M orricone\, wherein Zorn offered a number of often radical arrangements of M orricone's famed songs from various movies. The Big Gundown was endorsed by Morricone\, and incorporated elements of traditional Japanese music\, soul jazz\, and other diverse musical genres.\n\nZorn owns the Tzadik record la bel and has worked with a large number of experimental musicians\, particul arly in improvised music. He is inspired by other artists and different mus ical styles. He has a special attraction to underground artists and musical styles that are extremely loud\, wild\, or creative. He is perhaps best kn own for his work with Masada\, with Joey Baron (drums)\, Dave Douglas (trum pet)\, Greg Cohen (bass)\; Masada is an Ornette Coleman-influenced band pla ying compositions based on Jewish scales. The Masada songs are part of the songbook with several different arrangements. These include the Masada Stri ng Trio\, Bar Kohkba\, and Electric Masada. He has also played with Painkil ler (a mix of grindcore and free jazz in which he is joined by Mick Harris of Napalm Death) and Naked City (an often aggressive mix of jazz\, rock and thrash metal). He has also worked with musicians such as Bill Frisell\, Ga ry Lucas\, Wayne Horvitz\, Derek Bailey\, Cyro Baptista\, Trevor Dunn\, Mar k Feldman\, Fred Frith\, Erik Friedlander\, Keiji Haino\, Bill Laswell\, Ar to Lindsay\, Mike Patton\, John Medeski\, Ikue Mori\, Robert Quine\, Marc R ibot\, Jamie Saft\, Kenny Wolleson\, and the Violent Femmes. He has written music for television and film\, which has been collected in the ongoing Fi lmworks series of records on his label\, Tzadik. Some of these are jazz-bas ed\, others are classical.\n\nZorn has also written several game pieces\, i n which performers are allowed to improvise while following certain structu ral rules. These works are in the main named after sports\, and include Poo l\, Archery\, and Lacrosse\, as well as Cobra. He is also often noted for h is postmodern\, sometimes extreme\, use of formal blocks\, units which he c ombines and contrasts in various ways. Zorn discusses his history and the m usical philosophy behind his early works in the book Talking Music by Willi am Duckworth.\n\nMost recently\, he has become the principal force behind t he opening of The Stone\, an avant-garde performance space in New York's Al phabet City which supports itself solely on donations\, giving all door rev enues directly to the performers. Zorn holds the title of artistic director .\n\nZorn has lived and worked extensively in Japan and performs and record s under the name Dekoboko Hajime\, collaborating with and producing for num erous artists including Merzbow\, Otomo Yoshihide\, Melt Banana and of freq uent collaborator Yamatsuka Eye. Many of these artists have now released al bums on Tzadik and some regularly travel to New York where Zorn is based.

The program will feature two of Iannis Xenakis monumental string quartets\, ST/4\, 1-080262 and Tetora. (The remaining two quartets will be programmed at a later date.) ST/4 hail s from a series of groundbreaking works in which Xenakis employed stochasti c processes and the aid of a computer to determine nearly every aspect of t one production. This is not a work of personal expression\, but of contenti on with chaotic forces and with limited definitions of what music can and s hould be. On the other hand\, Tetora relies heavily on the expressive impac t of block harmonic chords with nary an extended technique to be heard. The program will also feature one of Joan Towers powerful quartets and the pre miere of dopamine by New York composer Jeff Myers.Holoscene is an avant-gar de instrumental band based in Toronto\, Canada. Their sound combines orches tral-rock percussion\, distorted bass guitar and open-tuned guitars to form pieces of sequentially structured wordless music. Themes in their music re volve around purposeful ambiguity\, the natural world and the numinous. For med in 2006 the band developed their sound during the making of their first EP "Nothing Is The End Of Everything" (currently available in North Americ a and scheduled for release in Europe in 2008). Straddling an area of music most commonly known as "post-rock" due to its instrumental nature\, Holosc ene are hard to pin down to any one specific genre and have had their sound described as cinematic\, ambient\, industrial\, post-metal\, and orchestra l-rock. The British writer Warren Ellis has described their music as "trans cendental etudes"\, whilst the band members themselves refuse to rule anyth ing out.

Over ten years\, Bang on a Can has found a number of these musicians -- performers who are adventurous\, virt uosic\, dynamic and intense\, who are equally at home with the diverse styl es that exist within music today. Six players in particular kept coming bac k. They were among the festival's finest artists -- six of the most accompl ished performers of new music in the world. With these six players the fest ival created the Bang on a Can All-Stars. Their instrumentation is unique - - clarinets and saxophones\, electric guitar\, cello\, bass\, keyboards\, p ercussion -- and doesn't seem to fit in any recognizable category...part cl assical ensemble\, part rock band\, part jazz band.
