A Night of Improvisational Performance by Ken Vandermark & Nate Wooley

The Alternate Space (TAS) is honored to host an evening with      improvisational performance duo Ken Vandermark and Nate Wooley on April 25, 2019. These players will be performing long-form compositions from their third recording together, an LP titled Deeply Discounted II/Sequences of Snow, released in December 2018. The duo will be on a tour of the US in between April 23^rd and May 3^rd in support of the LP. During the tour, the duo will perform some pieces from their first three recordings alongside a new set of music composed in collaboration using the “exquisite corpse” method first made popular by the Surrealist art movement.

This one-night only experience will feature two of the nation’s most dynamic improvisers in a         performance billed as a night to remember. Ken Vandermark and Nate Wooley are offering the rare opportunity to enjoy a performance in a unique setting not seen by many – Watertown’s The Alternate Space. The event, sponsored by Seven Cycles, brings improvised jazz music into a bicycling manufacturing environment where creativity, motion and hard work happen. The musicians will play together to create an organic combination of jazz tradition, free improvisation, and modern composition, placing it into the raw and intimate space.
