    About the Big Machine

    the Big Machine is a New York–based ensemble led by Aaron Burnett, working at the edge of contemporary classical practice and the improvising tradition. The group has appeared at Roulette, including Burnett’s program *Quantum Breaks II* with trumpeter Peter Evans, drummer Nick Jozwiak, bassist Carlos Homs, and composer–multi-instrumentalist Tyshawn Sorey. Their collaborations draw on free and experimental jazz lineages while keeping a composer’s attention to form. The music favors structural pressure and quick shifts over polished display.
