TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS 7/15 Tuesday (ICS) 8 pm THE X - MODERN CLASSICAL WORKS Esther Noh (violin) Melissa Tong (violin) Stephanie Griffin (viola) Jeremy Herman (cello) Brian Marsella (piano) Eyal Maoz (guitar) The X is a unique electric guitar extravaganza with a traditional string quartet sonic. Eyal’s string quartet composition Boded has won the Orchestra of Our Time Open Score Project in New York. Brian Marsella will debut two piano pieces by Maoz. One is inspired by the movie The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich; the other inspired by a circle. 10 pm EYAL MAOZ’S CRAZY SLAVIC BAND Jay Rozen (tuba) Chris Stromquist (drums) Eyal Maoz (guitar) Frank London (trumpet and horn) Rob Henke (trumpet and horn) John Carlson (trumpet and horn) Briggan Krauss (saxophone) Original music inspired by the newest contemporary Slavic composers. 7/16 Wednesday (DDT) 8 and 10 pm Eyal Maoz Dimyon Tanya Kalmanovich (viola) Eyal Maoz (acoustic guitar) Shanir Blumenkranz (acoustic bass) Mathias Kunzli (percussion) Satoshi Takeishi (percussion) Wonderfully realized, Dimyon is an exciting fuse of Maoz’s unique musical voice with an array of genres such as modern Jewish-Middle Eastern, classical, jazz and avant-garde music. A Jewish acoustic project, Dimyon has earned critical acclaim in Israel. If one has to define influential figures for Dimyon, John Zorn's Acoustic Masada and Frank Zappa would make the list. 7/17 Thursday (SC) 8 pm The Collapse Guitar Quartet Yoshie Fruchter, Ty Citerman, Jonathan Goldberger, Eyal Maoz (guitars) The Collapse Guitar Quartet offers first-rate repertoire ranging from jazz, ethnic and pop style compositions to highly imaginative contemporary works. This dynamic and wide-ranging synthesis features music arranged and composed by the CGQ members. 10 pm 9 VOLT WITH TIM BERNE Rick Parker (trombone, effects) Eyal Maoz (guitar, effects) Yoni Halevi (drums) Tim Berne (sax) An avant-garde, jazz-based trio (joined by the iconic saxophonist Tim Berne who is featured as a guest in their debut album as well), 9 Volt is comprised of New York's brightest underground jazz players. 9 Volt derives its unique sound from Parkerʼs use of electronics with the trombone combined with Maozʼs unique approach to guitar and effects. Their compositions are born from a synthesis of electronic experimental, rock, jazz and neoclassical minimalism. The band is held together by Israeli born drummer Yonadav Halevy who is highly regarded in both funk/hip hop as well as jazz circles. 7/18 Friday (AV) 8 and 10 pm Eyal Maoz’ Edom Brian Marsella (keyboards) Shanir Blumenkranz (bass) Yuval Lion (drums) Eyal Maoz (guitar) Featuring Eyal Maoz’s notorious one-of-a-kind approach to composition, and produced by the magic ears of Shanir Blumenkranz, Edom brings us into the much-too-rarely visited junction of instrumental pop, jazz and avant-garde. A unique synthesis of Jewish music, New Wave, electronic, and disco. 7/19 Saturday (JI) 8 pm 1895 Kermit Driscoll (bass) Shawn Baltazor (drums) Eyal Maoz (guitar) Eyal Maoz’s film project, 1895 (the year the first movie was ever projected in the world), is presenting music composed for Yoram Porath's documentary Keepers of Eden (winner of the Avignon / New York Film Festival), and music inspired by video art works by Deborah Johnson, Benton C Bainbridge, Graeme Patterson and Tracey McGuirl. 10 pm ABRAXAS plays JOHN ZORN Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz (gimbri) Yoshie Fruchter (guitar) Kenny Grohowski (drums) Eyal Maoz (guitar) Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz steps out on his own to make one of the most primal and tribal installments in the Book of Angels series. Drawing on his Sephardic roots, Shanir plays gimbri throughout, giving the music a primeval Moroccan edge. Featuring the intense guitar pyrotechnics of Eyal Maoz, Aram Bajakian and Yoshie Fruchter and the atavistic drumming of Kenny Grohowski, this is Ritualistic Jewish Rock for the 21st century by a brilliant young lion from the East Village via Brooklyn/Israel! 7/20 Sunday (JR) 8 pm LMN TRIO Shoko Nagai (keyboards) Lukas LIgeti (drums, electronics) Eyal Maoz (guitar) Improvised music and sounds by three of the best improvisers of the downtown scene. 10 pm HYPERCOLOR Lukas LIgeti (drums) James Ilgenfritz (bass) Eyal Maoz (guitar) Previewing their upcoming debut CD on Tzadik (TBR 09/14), this strangely marvelous rock-spastic-jazz band features composition by all three members. NYC-based Hypercolor’s ridiculous artsong craftsmanship alternately revels in complexity or brazen simplicity, favoring entropy and near-disaster over order or tidiness. Like experimental grafting surgery gone horribly awry, Hypercolor bears limbs borrowed from 80s NYC No-Wave, and early jazz/rock, and orchestral rock textures. 7/22 Tuesday (AV) 8 pm Percussion Duets Calvin Weston, Billy Martin (drums, percussion) 10 pm Chris Cochrane, Calvin Weston, Billy Martin Chris Cochrane (guitar) Calvin Weston, Billy Martin (drums, percussion) 7/23 Wednesday (BLG) 8 pm Fang Percussionists — A Multisensory evening David Freeman, Steve Honoshowsky, Ronald Stockwell (percussion) Billy Martin (percussion, projections) Phaedra Martin (perfumer) STRIDULATIONS 10 pm Fang Percussionists — A Multisensory evening David Freeman, Steve Honoshowsky, Ronald Stockwell (percussion) Billy Martin (percussion, projections) Phaedra Martin (perfumer) Yoruban Game. 7/24 Thursday (SV) 8 and 10 pm Wicked Knee Steven Bernstein (trumpets) Curtis Fowlkes (trombone) Marcus Rojas (tuba) Billy Martin (drums) 7/25 Friday (ICS) 8 pm Omnispheres Billy Martin (drums, percussion) 10 pm Omnispheres Billy Martin (percussion, videos) Paul Ward (electronics) 7/26 Saturday (RK) 8 pm Sirius Quartet 8pm Sirius Quartet Ronald Lawrence (viola) Fung Chern Hwei (violin) Jeremy Harman (cello) Billy Martin (percussion, drums) 10 pm Drop the Needle Billy Martin (drums, percussion, laptop) Scott Harding (electronics) 7/27 Sunday (SV) 8 and 10 pm Drummingbirds Rakalam Bob Moses (drums, percussion, voice) Cyro Baptista (percussion, voice) Billy Martin (drums, percussion, video) 7/29 Tuesday (KR) 8 pm Marilyn Crispell and Tyshawn Sorey Marilyn Crispell (piano) Tyshawn Sorey (drums) TWENTY DOLLARS 10 pm Marilyn Crispell Trio Marilyn Crispell (piano) Mark Helias (bass) Tyshawn Sorey (drums) TWENTY DOLLARS 7/30 Wednesday (HM) 8 pm Koan Trio Todd Neufeld (guitar) Tyshawn Sorey (drums, compositions) Thomas Morgan (bass) First performance in 5 years!! 10 pm Matt Mitchell and Tyshawn Sorey Matt Mitchell (piano, compositions) Tyshawn Sorey (drums, compositions) 7/31 Thursday (HM) 8 pm Second Meeting Dave Burrell (piano) Henry Grimes (bass, poetry) Tyshawn Sorey (drums) TWENTY DOLLARS 10 pm Button Trio Stephen Haynes (cornet, flugelhorn, little instruments) Joe Morris (guitar, bass) Tyshawn Sorey (drums, trombone) TWENTY DOLLARS |
