SUNDAY, JUNE 7TH
Playing with James Keepnews’ People’s Party @ 2pm
Daniel Carter - reeds, trumpet, flute
In addition to being one of the most inspired musicians of the New York Free Jazz scene of the last thirty-two years, Daniel Carter also has the distinction of a much broader approach to music than many of his "energy music peers." "I was an aspiring anarchist. Not in the sense of disorder, everything is crazy in the street, violence, but in the sense of wanting to be myself as much as possible, and...sometimes you discover you're radically different in your procedure. You have no real desire to be radically different in your procedure, and to clash with the procedures of others or the methodologies of others, but I got to the point where I didn't want to be told what to do." Thankfully, Carter has pursued his musical vision with high integrity, resulting in some of the most beautiful music to come out of NYC in a long time. People's Revolutionary Party is the creation of James Keepnews who calls the band--post everything ascension funk. PRP is:

SPOKE @ 4pm
This Brooklyn group of unique musicians have created a truly post-modern yet beautifully melodic album incorporating diverse influences from 1960's free-bop, contemporary classical, funk and Chinese pop music.
Spoke's first album represents the culmination of a repertoire developed over years of playing together regularly. After forming in 2006 to play a regular Fort Greene restaurant gig, the ensemble quickly found a purpose in pursuing what one listener calls the "Art of the Compromise:" living in the intermediate territory between individual and collective improvisation, while retaining a sense of structure and tradition.
