About Hurry Red Telephone
At Roulette, guitarist Marc Ribot returns with the Marc Ribot Quartet for the album-release concert *Hurry Red Telephone*. The music is presented under a classical frame, but it carries Ribot’s long-running habit of crossing lines between composed structure and the grain of rock and pop performance, recently heard in a KEXP Live Room session and on New York stages like Le Poisson Rouge. No NYC premiere history is specified for this program. One clear point emerges: Ribot treats the quartet as both chamber ensemble and working band, which is a useful measure of where contemporary classical practice sits in the city now.
