Michael Arnowitt and the ImproVisions Jazz Quintet
Saturday, September 14, 7:00 pm
Montpelier Unitarian Church (corner of Main and School streets in Montpelier)
A wonderful and rare opportunity to hear Michael Arnowitt again.
"I'll be performing on piano with some of my favorite Vermont jazz musicians from the 30 years I lived in Vermont. I'll be joined on stage by:
Dave Ellis, trumpet
Dan Silverman, trombone
Clyde Stats, bass
Caleb Bronz, drums
"The program, which was requested by the arts center in Maine, is "When Jazz Meets Classical," and contains a mix of my own original jazz compositions from my 2018 CD Sweet Spontaneous, some excerpts from my Jazz Suite from West Side Story, and some jazz arrangements of mine influenced by classical music of Chopin, Debussy, Stravinsky, and Copland. The last two will be Vermont premieres of work I've done just in the last few months: "Interlude with Igor" is based on Stravinsky's famous early ballets Petrushka and The Rite of Spring, and "Coplandscapes" is based on Copland's Appalachian Spring, Fanfare, and Billy the Kid. Should be a pretty creative evening enjoyable by all." —Michael
Tickets are $20, available at the door only.
Hope to see folks there—
