 | Thursday, November 16th at 9pm: The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present the Idit Shner Quintet performing Eric Dolphy’s "Far Cry", released in 1962. ALBUM BACKGROUND: "Far Cry finds multi-reedist Eric Dolphy in a transitional phase, relinquishing Charlie Parker's governing universal impact and diving into the next controversial phase that critics began calling "anti-jazz." On this date Booker Little's lyrical trumpet and Jackie Byard's confident grasp of multiple piano styles (though both steeped in hard bop) were sympathetic to the burgeoning "avant-garde" approach that Dolphy displays, albeit sparingly, on this session. Far Cry contains the initial performance of Dolphy's future jazz classic "Miss Ann," along with his first recorded solo alto sax performance on "Tenderly," in which Dolphy bridges the gap between the solo saxophone performances of Coleman Hawkins and Anthony Braxton.” ~Al Campbell PERFORMANCES BY: Idit Shner - Woodwinds Chad McCullough - Trumpet Rob Clearfield - Keyboard Matt Ulery - Bass Jon Deitemyer - Drums ADMISSION & LOCATION: $10 cover or $5 w/ student ID Doors open at 8pm.
