Tomeka Reid Quartet feat. Mary Halvorson, Jason Roebke, Tomas Fujiwara
On Thursday, October 31, 2019, Arts + Literature Laboratory presents the Tomeka Reid Quartet featuring award-winning cellist, composer, and arranger Tomeka Reid, guitarist Mary Halvorson, bassist Jason Roebke, and drummer Tomas Fujiwara, as part of their CD release tour for Old New. Tickets are available for 6:30pm and 9:00pm shows. Tickets are available in advance for $20 online or at the door for $25. Students with a valid school ID receive a $5 discount. Online sales end 1 hour before each show.
The jazz polls might still list cello under the miscellaneous instrument category, but in the hands of Tomeka Reid its an essential vehicle for unfettered jazz exploration. Old New, the second album by the Tomeka Reid Quartet, is a project that exemplifies why shes quickly become a definitive figure on the 21st century jazz scene. As a composer, arranger, improviser, bandleader, and impresario, she embodies jazzs progressive ethos. Crafting memorable tunes brimming with arresting textures and melodies, Reid creates music palpably connected to the tradition while recasting those sounds to meet her own expressive needs.
While Reid has recorded prolifically since making her debut on flutist Nicole Mitchells 2002 Black Earth Ensemble album Afrika Rising (DreamTime Records), Old New is only her second album leading her own band, following up on the eponymous Tomeka Reid Quartet (Thirsty Ear). Like that 2015 release, the bands second album features a brilliant cast with guitarist Mary Halvorson and drummer Tomas Fujiwara, who play together in at least half a dozen different ensembles, and Chicago bassist Jason Roebke. Its essentially a string band, an electro-acoustic hybrid in which any player might take on bass, melodic or rhythmic responsibilities at any given time.
