What's On
Groove-based modern jazz with influences from Africa and the Middle-East. Multi-instrumental jazz composer Avram Fefer and multidisciplinary performing artist Carl Hancock Rux combine their talents for the debut of this exciting new ensemble honoring the unparalleled contributions of Jewish and African Americans to American culture; specifically the remarkable history of collaboration in America’s greatest musical gift to the wider world — the music we call Jazz. Bringing together the compositional and improvisational skills of the saxophonist and the baritone voice of the renowned word artist, these two veteran NYC performers will lead The Afro-Semitic Transcendental Repertory Orchestra (A.S.T.R.O.) through a diverse set of sophisticated global jazz that celebrates Liberation and Transcendence in all its forms.
