Jeff Song (cello) unites his two groups, Trio Ex Nihilo (formed in 2001) and The Blooming (formed a few years later) with Taylor Ho Bynum (cornet), Tom Hall (sax), Curt Newton (drums), joined by "Third Thursdays" host Dave Bryant (keys).
This month's “Third Thursdays” concert will celebrate the 25th anniversary of Trio Ex Nihilo’s debut recording and will be the first performance combining both groups, with the addition of Dave Bryant on keyboards. The creativity and originality of these veteran free jazz musicians will be in full force during January’s installment in the long-running monthly “Third Thursdays” harmolodic jazz series.
Dave notes, “In my 2013 recording The Garden of Equilibria, I realized it was a secret weapon to incorporate The Blooming trio of Jeff, Tom, and Curt in a larger ensemble. It’s always a pleasure to reconnect with them, and this will be my first collaboration with Taylor, whose work I’ve long admired.”
Admission at the door: $10 (cash / check / charge / Venmo). Complimentary “Third Thursdays” concert parking is available at the Everett Street Garage at 10 Everett Street in Cambridge.
The "Third Thursdays" series will be concluding its third 12-month cycle of concerts in March. February features Gabriel Solomon (violin), Eric Hofbauer (guitar), Jacob William (bass), and Brooke Sofferman (drums). March will feature Matt Lavelle (trumpet, bass clarinet), Fred Williams (bass), and James Kamal Jones (drums). Both concerts will be joined by series host Dave Bryant on keys.
