With the help of some analog electronics, they orchestrate the overtones, micro-beats, wind flows, clicking of the pads, impact of the stick on the drumhead, and sub tone effects. Their music shows influences from Ornette Coleman, Steve Lacy, György Ligeti, Conlon Nancarrow, Morton Feldman, Ryoji Ikeda, Brian Eno.
10pm spacer Bill Ware's Vibes with Kazu and special guest
$12
Rhythm was observed in the feet. It was transferred to the hands and applied to a musical instrument creating music. Vibes w/ special guest Kazu (tap dancer) is the quintessential meeting of hands and feet. With Bill Ware's fast hands and Kazu's fleet feet, your guaranteed an evening wrought with rhythmic intensity. The duo is just back from a successful engagement in Tokyo Japan and together with able sidemen Yoshi Waki (Acoustic Bass) and Jaime Aff (Drums) this will be a truly special show!
