'Carnegie Hall's Opening Night Gala' w/ the Philadelphia Orchestra+Esperanza Spalding
|
|
Esperanza Spalding’s progression from a Post-Bop prodigy with strong Afro-Latin Jazz chops and an impeccable vocal phrasing to the electric bass-wielding Neo-Soul-Fusion songstress of 2012’s Radio Music Society might have been unexpected, but it was certainly not a fruitless... More >> |

'Fixed' w/ the Field+JDH & Dave P
|
|
For the first of two shows celebrating their ninth anniversary, local promoters Fixed bring over Axel Willner (a/k/a the Field) whose debut album of amniotic loop techno, From Here We Go Sublime, was rapturously received and who has continued the sample-based ethereality with this year's...

'Sun Ra Turns 100'
|
|
Yep, the great one arrived in Alabama a century or so ago, and though he left the planet in ’93, his spectacular music is still getting much play from his feisty lieutenant, Marshall Allen, and the revolving door of musicians who populate the Arkestra on any given night. They know all... More >> |

Brandon Seabrook & Mary Halvorson
|
|
Gonna be a big one. Two of town’s most inspired guitarists bring their leftie POVs to a room that breeds experimentation. Seabrook can be high-flying, with a fearless blitzkrieg approach. Halvorson is as sneaky as they come, twirling her lines in a way that lassos you before even realize... More >> |

Regina Carter
|
|
The reigning queen of jazz violin has carved a niche for herself by blending the traditionalist style of Stephane Grappelli with the avant-garde bravado of Billy Bang and the dazzling technique of Itzhak Perlman. She studied with the latter at one point as a young classical violin student at... More >> |

Tom Harrell Quintet
|
|
The “dream” reference in the trumpeter’s new Colors Of A Dream harks to his take on Dali’s esthetic, and at its most vivid Harrell’s spin on the hard bop lingo can claim several surreal moments. His working quintet brings a feisty punch to every stage it commands,... More >> |

Ginger Baker's Jazz Confusion
|
|
"Beware of Mr. Baker" or not, this should be a lively percussion-focused run, at least if the former Cream drummer holds up. Baker, who still exudes rock-star attitude as well as considerable Afrobeat mojo, leads a quartet consisting of the powerful saxophonist Pee Wee Ellis, bassist Alec... More >> |

'Jazz Night'
|
|
|
This weekly jazz jam at the newly expanded Spike Hill bar in Williamsburg is as raucous as anything else on its stretch of Bedford. But the rotating cast of players is solid, the veggie burger is hot, and really, doesn't that newest Beacon's Closet discovery deserve to be aired out somewhere classy? More >> |
