Other People’s Music

I’m taking September off from performance to propel the creativity of others:

• Lisa Mezzacappa’s Glorious Ravage, the panoramic free jazz song cycle that features a large ensemble of stellar improvisers performing new music in dialogue with films created by Bay Area moving image artists Janis Crystal Lipzin, Kathleen Quillian, Alfonso Alvarez and Konrad Steiner. The project is inspired by the adventures and writings of lady explorers of the 19th century who trekked to the wildest parts of the earth, to escape, to discover, and to lose themselves.Follow this process and mark your calendars for performances at the end of September (Southern California) and the Bay Area premiere at Brava October 1st and 2nd.

And revisit prior work with beloved collaborators:

• inkBoat’s Line Between, the 2009-2011 exploration of moments between sleep and wakefulness culminated in an award-winning performance at ODC. The show tours to Seoul, Korea in October with the addition of Noh actor Jubilith Moore and singer-sound artist Katherine McDonald.
