Additional Information

We explore Vijay Iyer’s unique talent and vision in three contexts. His trio, featuring Stephan Crump on bass and Marcus Gilmore on drums, starts out the evening, pushing the classic combo configuration to entirely new territories.

The legendarily influential saxophonist Steve Coleman joins the trio in the second set for a rare guest appearance. For more than four decades, Coleman has pushed the concept of jazz in ways few others have.

Iyer’s new sextet, featuring the core trio plus Coleman, with the addition of Graham Haynes on trumpet and cornet, and Mark Shim on tenor sax, will close out the evening.

This extraordinary evening with Vijay Iyer and his incomparable cohorts will be talked about for years to come.

Presented in association with Angel City Jazz Festival and the Jazz Bakery.

Supported in part by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation Endowment Fund and the Sally and William A. Rutter Endowment for the Performing Arts.
