FRI 8 & 9:30 - Igor Lumpert w/Drew Gress, Damion Reid
About This Event
Saxophonist Igor Lumpert, a Slovene player whose approach favors inquiry over polish and who works at the edge of jazz and free improvisation, leads a trio with bassist Drew Gress and drummer Damion Reid at Bar Bayeux. Their sets move between written fragments and open-form improvisation, with Gress’s elastic sense of time and Reid’s fine-grained, density-shifting drumming keeping pulse and structure in dialogue.
