Experimental, electric, ALIVE, Jazz, Deconstructed Volume 2

Nu Jazz, Japanese Jazz, Punk Jazz. . . there are as many styles of jazz as there are rivers on earth; each rivulet, creek and brook leads back to the original aquifer that never seems to run dry. Jazz, Deconstructed Volume 2, celebrates the diverse world of experimental jazz from four very different perspectives and tributaries.

Volume 2 of the series explores everything from ancient sounds on analog instruments to electronic playback and streaming audio/visuals. Using atonality, dissonance, improvisation and traditional song structure, the artists in the series add a verse to the new vanguard of the movement, changing the way we experience jazz.


Here's the line-up:

April 6: Mark Weaver's UFO Ensemble

April 13: Sama Duo

April 20: John Rangel and the Improv Comp

April 27: The Things That Are Heard

Bring your cash money-- Tractor Brewery will be serving up the beer and wine and the Kosmos Cafe will be open for all of you coffee and tea drinkers. Hurray!

Deconstructed: Wednesdays, April 6-27, 7pm at The Kosmos, 1715 5th Street, downtown Albuquerque. Tickets are $10 general, $8 students, seniors and NMJW members. Tickets are available online at www.eventbrite.com.
