Job’s Trials: A Jazz Song Cycle
$15.00 Add to cartFriday, November 19, 2021 – 7:30pm
Job’s Trials: A Jazz Song Cycle by bassist/composer Dan Loomis is an evocative musical dive into an ancient, universal story exploring why bad things happen to good people. Job stands up for his truth and dares to hold God to account. Loomis brings his unique compositional voice and signature soulful bass-playing to a new jazz song cycle form developed to bring this story alive. The fullness of the concert examines the most perplexing and powerful themes from the story: the ephemeral value of a virtuous life, the injustice of suffering, and the righteousness of rebellion.
Tickets will be available for purchase online until Nov 19 at noon. The cost of admission is $15.

Josh Sinton’s Predicate Performs ‘4 freedoms’ for Creative Quartet
FREE - RSVP Read moreFriday, October 29, 2021 – 7:30pm
Josh Sinton’s “4 freedoms” is a meditation on and exploration of the models of democracy and compassionate anarchy manifested in the musics of Duke Ellington, Anthony Braxton, Andrew Hill, Julius Hemphill and Henry Threadgill. All of these African-American artists created personal and startling musical counterpoint and in doing so, imagined a world where everyone’s unique voice can be sounded together in a unique harmony. Sinton’s piece is an expression of his respect, admiration and love for the work of these great artists.
The performance will feature composer Josh Sinton on woodwinds, Jonathan Finlayson on trumpet, Christopher Hoffman on cello and Tom Rainey on drums.
