Friday, January 6 Jane Rigler

Bruce Arnold - guitar & SuperCollider
Aaron Jackson - piano
Thomas Buckner - voice
Tony Moreno, Kirk Driscoll - drums & percussion
Mike Richmond, Dave Phillips - acoustic bass
The New York jazz ensemble Spooky Actions creates new arrangements of older
music, finding inspiration in the discipline and muted palette of twelve tone
counterpoint, the harmonic beauty of Olivier Messiaen, the narrow focus of
Gregorian melody, and the rhythmic patterns of Native American songs - vivid
improvisations derived from music that is often thought of as "etched in stone.�
Friday, January 13 Miguel Frasconi
Miguel Frasconi - glass instruments, buchla lightning, mbira, laptop &
electronics
Philip Gelb - shakuhachi
Toshio Kajiwara - turntables & electronics
Cornelius Dufallo - violin
Miguel Frasconi is a composer and performer of new exploratory world music.
Combining traditional western and non-western instruments with experimental
forms, modern electronics, glass and other devolved instruments, he creates a
music that sounds from a uniquely imagined tradition. His background includes
work with John Cage, Brian Eno, Jon Hassell, and James Tenney, and studies
ranging from the music of South India, West Africa, and Indonesia to the dada and
fluxus movements.
Saturday, January 14 Thomas Buckner - Juho Laitinen - Christian Wolff
Thomas Buckner - voice
Juho Laitinen - cello
Christian Wolff - piano
This international trio - formed during the Ostrava Music Days festival -
makes it�s New York debut here. Thomas Buckner's interest in the study and
practices of improvisation has led him to establish ongoing, long-term relationships
with performers from a wide range of backgrounds. Returning to New York from
Finland, cellist Juho Laitinen frequently performs with leading Scandinavian
jazz musicians, and with his own ensemble "Group Seven." Christian Wolff has
had a particular interest in developing music that allows flexibility and ranges
of freedom, fostering a spirit of liberating interdependence, and drawing
material from traditions of popular political music.
