8 DAYS: A DANCE IMPROV & FREE JAZZ MEETING

8 DAYS: A DANCE IMPROV & FREE JAZZ MEETING josh miller

Announcing Arts for Art's April Evolving Series, presenting FreeJazz and Dance Improvisation. These 2 important streams in innovation and Improvisation each grew up in the Lower East Side in the 70’s and 80’s but only randomly interacted. Yoshiko Chuma & the School of Hard Knocks in collaboration with Patricia Nicholson Parker & Arts for Art, are bringing these improvisational streams together so that we can all see what might happen next. Arts for Art has successfully brought Free Jazz aka avantJazz to the attention of a world wide audience. Now it is time that these two improvising trends met and share with each other. We already know that the music, poetry and dance are without compromise. Now they will share the same space on an equal footing.

Highlights: Yoshiko Chuma, Patricia Nicholson, Lance Gries, Paul Singh, Chisa Hidaka, Jason Jordan, Rachel Bernsen
