Transparent Productions presents pianist Matthew Shipp, solo, at Tonal Park Studios.
Friday February 6th. Doors at 7:00PM, music at 7:30PM.
Admission: $25-$35, sliding scale. Advance Tickets. Co-presented with Rhizome DC.
New York City-based pianist, MATTHEW SHIPP, has collaborated with, among others, David S. Ware, William Parker, Joe Morris, Roscoe Mitchell, Matt Maneri, Darius Jones, Michael Bisio, and Gerald Cleaver. Downbeat describes Shipp as “the connection between the past, present and future for jazzheads of all ages” and as “a musician who deserves a place of choice in the jazz piano pantheon.” He is the author of the book “Black Mystery School Pianists and Other Writings” which was published earlier this year. Shipp’s latest solo piano recording is “The Cosmic Piano” on Cantaloupe Music.
Reviews for “The Cosmic Piano”:
"He has developed one of the most unique voices in modern jazz and improvised music." – Burning Ambulance
"Shipp’s imagination is boundless. Let’s hope he continues to deliver the masterful improvisational music he alone can offer." – PostGenre
"...another thoughtful, spiritual outpouring of Shipp’s core being using his piano as the vessel that puts it out there for all of creation, for all of time eternal” – Something Else! Reviews
