World Premiere of Frank London's Shekhinah Big Band

World Premiere of Frank London's Shekhinah Big Band   Only in New York can you find 21 musicians who are all fluent in modern Jazz, free improvisation, traditional Jewish wedding music, Afro-Cuban salsa, and latin jazz. All of these elements coexist in Frank London's biggest and boldest project to date -  the Shekhinah Big Band. Two great traditions, klezmer and big band jazz, come together in one huge project that promises ground breaking music of exquisite intensity and awesomely ecstatic fun. The band will make their world debut at The Stone, John Zorn's club in the Lower East Side. The Stone is a cradle of creativity, a place to explore, take chances, try out new ideas, and give free reign to the imagination. Like Charles Mingus' legendary Jazz Workshops - which took place just around the corner - the Shekhinah Big Band's Monday night residency will be an opportunity for the band to take chances and find its voice, as a new musical genre is revealed. Audiences will have a rare chance to see and hear the processes of creation unfolding as Shekhinah finds its identity in this workshop London's original klezmer jazz compositions have been re-interpreted and re-imagined by a coterie of writers, many of whom are in the band. The personnel - a who's who of the radical jewish music world - promises to make the Shekhinah Big Band one of the hottest new bands on this or any scene. trumpets Rob Henke Steve Gluzband Pam Fleming Ron Horton Justin Mullens saxes Marty Ehrlich  Matt Darriau Doug Wieselman Petr Cancura Peter Apfelbaum Greg Wall Zach Mayer trombones Jacob Garchik  Curtis Hasselbring Matt Haviland Brian Drye Dan Blacksberg rhythm keys Uri Sharlin Brian Marsella  congas Renato Thoms guitar Yoshi Fruchter bass Brian Glassman Pablo Aslan drums Richie Barshay  Mike Sarin Frank London's Shekhinah Big Band Workshops @ The Stone Mondays, Feb 4, 11 18, 25 8 pm $10 Frank London's Shekhinah Big Band Workshops @ The Stone Mondays, Feb 4, 11 18, 25 8 pm $10 The Stone Facebook Event Official Frank London Facebook page
