SUMMARY:The Afro-Semitic Experience – A Special Evening of Music & Songs About Freedom
DESCRIPTION:In Honor of Black History Month \n\n\n\nFeaturing The Afro-Semitic Experience\, an American roots jazz band \n\n\n\nJoin us for an evening of unique entertainment and ruach with The Afro-Semitic Experience\, a group of Jewish American and African American musicians who have been performing\, recording\, and teaching together for 25 years. Their friendship ignites their passion and purpose. Together\, as a band\, they merge their musical roots – Jewish and Afro-diasporic melodies\, grooves\, and cultures\, combining the core concepts of àse and shalom – power\, action\, unity\, and peace. Their music embodies the radical notion that people of different faiths\, races\, and beliefs can come together\, celebrate and build community. \n\n\n\nThe band’s repertoire is a mix of original compositions and arrangements that bring the message of Unity in the Community to all audiences. \n\n\n\n“Imagine Charles Mingus sitting in with a Klezmer band\, playing Gospel music set to the polyrhythmic pace of the congas and bongos. ” — Carlos Ramos\, The Rainbow Reporter \n\n\n\nTickets: $25 in advance; $35 at the door \n\n\n\nBand’s Bio: The group began in 1998 as a duo with David Chevan on the bass and Warren Byrd on piano. Over the years\, they have added many other powerful and distinctive musical voices to their mix. The current line-up includes Will Bartlett on tenor saxophone\, clarinet and flute Alvin Carter\, Jr. on drum set\, Saskia Laroo on trumpet\, and Jocelyn Pleasant on percussion. They’ve recorded eight CDs and are in the midst of composing music for their ninth.
