About This Event
Saxophonist Adam Kolker appears at Bar Bayeux with Gary Versace, Jeremy Stratton and drummer Colin Stranahan. The quartet emphasizes close listening and form‑shaping: Kolker's improvisational voice meets Versace's balance of straight‑ahead and freer approaches, Stratton's inward, responsive ensemble playing and Stranahan's structural drumming as the group moves between modern jazz and open improvisation.
