THURS 8 & 9:30 Marta Sanchez w/Adam Kolker, Jeremy Stratton, George Schuller
About This Event
Marta Sanchez performs at Bar Bayeux with saxophonist and composer Adam Kolker, drummer George Schuller and Jeremy Stratton. Kolker's compositional and saxophone work, Schuller's momentum-oriented drumming—rooted in a structural sensibility inherited from his father Gunther Schuller—and Stratton's responsive, texture-shifting approach point toward a program that moves between written material and freer improvisation.
