7:30 pm Polesye Project and Shofar

DETAILS:

Singer, accordionist, musicologist and Warsaw-native Olga Mieleszczuk’s (Polesye Project) special focus is music of the Ashkenazi Jewish tradition of Eastern Europe, especially the border areas of Poland (Galitzia, Polesye). A classically-trained musician, who divides her time between Warsaw and Tel Aviv, she has studied and performed wide-ranging genres from Hassidic music, to Yiddish songs, to folk music from the Jewish, Slavic and Balkan traditions.

Shofar Trio—guitarist Raphael Roginski, saxophonist and bass clarinet player Mikolaj Trzaska and drummer Macio Moretti  formed in 2006, joins traditional Jewish music with contemporary avant-jazz and rock. The Poland-based band released its debut album in 2007—works based on the first compendium of Hassidic melodies from the Ukraine, Poland and Moldova compiled by early 20th-century Soviet musicologist Moshe Beregovsky.

The recording will be released on January 4th, 2013 in a limited edition signed by the artists and containing two disc formats: stereo compact disc and surround-sound DTS-CD. The work distills Nono’s manifold lifelong preoccupations – philosophy, politics, history, theater, text, spatialization, improvisation, real-world sounds, electronics and amplification – into the relatively simple medium of solo violin and 8-track tape.

7:30 PM, Miguel Gutierrez and the Powerful People (DANCE)

VENUE: BAM Fisher, Fishman Space

DETAILS:  “Improvisation makes you realize how important, scary, and potentially wonderful every single second of your life can be.” —Miguel Gutierrez

A work for dancers, aged 33 to 62, exploring the crisscrossing pathways of the brain and the elusive logic of improvisation, welcoming mixed messages while accessing an eerie, otherworldly state of hope and vitality. Sights and Sounds: Six fierce performers, the inventive glow of light concocted by Lenore Doxsee, the hallucinatory sound stylings of Neal Medlyn, and the cool, dislocating film and words of Boru O’Brien O’Connell. My art is most inspired by: Most recently, ghosts, varying definitions of consciousness, somatics, California sunlight and highways, and trippy, melodious electroacoustic music.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5

8 PM    Ben Goldberg’s Unfold Ordinary Mind

VENUE:  The Stone

DETAILS:  Ben Goldberg (contra alto clarinet, compositions) Ellery Eskelin (tenor sax) Nels Cline (guitar) Ches Smith (drums). I have been developing my abilities on the E-flat contra alto clarinet (a weird member of the family, pitched below the bass clarinet) for some years, mostly in my work with the group Tin Hat. Somehow it occurred to me to have a band where I was the bass player, on this instrument. Of course the group would need two of my tenor saxophone heroes (Ellery Eskelin and Rob Sudduth), a guitar genius (and now certifiable rock star) (Nels Cline), and the deeply tumultuous drummer Ches Smith. So after finishing up the premiere of my latest giant project, Orphic Machine, in March of 2012, I wrote a bunch of songs and assembled this crew at the Bunker studio in Williamsburg one day in May. We learned the tunes, rehearsed, and recorded them all in just a few hours, and the results are extraordinary—raw, dire, and to the point. The record will be released by my label, BAG Production Records, in January. The record is called Unfold Ordinary Mind, which is also the name of the band for a few East Coast shows I am happy we will be playing in December.

ADMISSION: $10

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 9

9:00 PM, Weasel Walter, Mary Halvorson and Peter Evans

VENUE: Death by Audio

DETAILS:The collective knowledge base of drummer Weasel Walter, guitarist Mary Halvorson and trumpeter Peter Evans stretches from death metal to experimental improv. On the trio’s new Mechanical Malfunction—which finds the group tackling precomposed pieces for the first time—it continues to find novel ways of balancing aggression with whimsy. Helping to round out this spiffy bill is the duo of local avant-garde drum whiz Kid Millions and Jim Sauter, half of the revered/feared saxophone tandem from noise-jazz institution Borbetomagus.-timeout

Here they create eleven compositions of unique cutting edge music with the help of some of the brightest lights in improvised music. Mystery, lyricism and electronic soundscapes from this most dynamic of all dynamic duos.

 “Dzieci is a wonderful example of the spiritual intensity possible when theatre engages the age-old mysteries of faith and the human experience.” – Canon Tom Miller, Cathedral St. John the Divine

Karen, who apparently proofread the script once, is asked to go on in Walken’s place. A precarious bilingual performance duet ensues between Karen and her Russian interpreter, Leo. There There is a wildly unpredictable theatrical roller coaster about being the completely wrong person in the totally wrong place at the exact wrong time doing all the most wrong things. Directed by Paul Willis, performed by Kristen Kosmas & Larisa Tokmakov, design by Peter Ksander, translation by Matvei Yankelevich.
