Last Time Revision

It looks like there was some confusion about our performance tonight at the Battery Books and Music. We will be starting at about 8 PM. This should be set in stone now!

Performing the music of Ayler, Coleman, Holland, Lacy, Monk. Below is Mr. Ayler to tide you over.

Flakes

No, it's not the name of the group (but maybe it should be). It's another one of the pieces that I'll be playing with Alexander Vogel, Dan Clucas, Jeff Schwartz, and Rich West at the Battery Books and Music on Thursday 4/12 at 7 PM (disregard the 8 PM times on the older posts). In addition to the music of Mr. Lacy there will be more music by Albert Ayler, Dave Holland, Ornette Coleman, and Thelonius Monk. Great pieces, great improvisers, what more do you want?

Art of Love is Happiness

While rehearsing for an upcoming gig with Dan Clucas, Jeff Schwartz, Alexander Vogel, and Rich West I was reacquainted with The Art of Love is Happiness, an Ornette Coleman composition that may have been my favorite on the In All Languages album. There is a nice version of it below, but you can also come out and see the five of us play it as well as compositions by Steve Lacy, Albert Ayler, Dave Holland, and Thelonius Monk:
