Jazz Dialogue

1 upcoming performance in New York

At Ornithology Jazz Club in New York City, *Jazz Dialogue* is presented as a live set built around conversation—between musicians, between ensemble roles, and between written structure and open improvisation. Todd Herbert, Jeremy Manasia, Jason Clotter, Larry Banks, and Anthony Pearlman shape the material in real time, letting tempo and timbre do the arguing and agreeing. The title nods to a mid‑1960s jazz recording project that paired a small group with a larger ensemble, a reminder of how orchestration can expand a band’s vocabulary. The critical point is simple: the music’s meaning arrives through listening, not display.
