Indie from NYC

Gabriel Zucker & the Delegation

"Indie from NYC" - Gabriel Zucker & The Delegation - Wednesday 26 April - 8pm

Gabriel Zucker’s indie jazz orchestra The Delegation was founded in 2013, and has already broken new ground in New York’s dynamic music scene. Combining Zucker’s metric complexity and maximalist approach with the melodic stylings of indie rock, the group’s impressive roster of jazz players forge a unique and emotionally immediate sound, representing a singular approach to improvisation in the 21st century. The ensemble’s musical philosophy has been profiled at length by the Ottawa CitizenJazz Gallery, and the American Composers Forum. The Delegation has performed throughout the Northeast, Canada, and Europe, and Zucker’s compositions for the group have received awards from ASCAP and the American Composers Forum. 

In October 2016, The Delegation released Evergreen (Canceled World), Zucker’s maximalist 12-movement composition that serves as the band’s sprawlingly ambitious debut record. One of the only contemporary 2016 releases on ESP-Disk’, the singular record appeared on top-10 lists and was hailed as a “fascinating form of sonic installation” in a 4.5-star review in Downbeat. Awarding the record 4 stars, All About Jazz raved that the Evergreen “totally lives up to its larger-than-life sweep and scope.” The World Music Report wrote: "In Zucker’s almost confrontational writing I find the vision of one who is hugely expressive. Here is a young man with a profound sense of tone and colour and how it can be wrought from diverse instrumentation to be affectingly ‘cantorial’, expressive and hugely symphonic too." With protean production by Zucker and pop producer Chris Connors, the nearly-two-hour record features everything from angular rhythmic grooves to Radiohead-inspired soundscapes to jarring electronics-infused chamber music to enigmatic lullabies.

The Delegation is currently working on its sophomore record, Leftover Beats From The Edges Of Time, portions of which were premiered by Zucker in a March 2017 solo recital at Weill Hall (Carnegie Recital Hall).

Who want to be THE third?

Friday 17 March, we are please and proud to welcome "The Third Guy".

A group of two!

As a pure Improv performance, they need a third to play with... to interact or just share the moment, the concert, venue, a break for a drink and this third guy could play. Dancer, poet, player, video maker...

Because art it is made for share. Only one rule: they want to know nothing about him/her...

If You want, You could be THE one (or maybe will they play w/ more than one...) chosen.

Please answer, ASAP (haekem@gmail.com).

Kind Regards.

Gerard Daval

Sunday 12 February 2017 - 5pm









5pm, a Sunday!

Amazing How Town is scheduled for a nice end of week-end.

Forewords












How Town is a Belgian/Latvian ensemble led by composer/bassist Lennart Heyndels. They combine contemporary popular music with improvisation and influences from experimental music. Point of departure is ‘the voice’ and all its different possibilities. How Town came into existence in 2012 when Lennart wrote a suite based on the poem Anyone lived in a pretty how town by E.E. Cummings. In the meantime the group has released two albums and was awarded the Young Music prize at the Theater Aan Zee festival in Oostende (BE). Their goal is to bring accessible music without relinquishing complexity. How Town operates ‘outside of the box’, giving their music the self-invented name contemporary multi-style post-pop music.
