Jazz composers Alex Coke and Carl Michel will present an evening of their own and others’ works this November in KMFA’s State-of-the-Art Draylen Mason Studio. Leading an ensemble whose members individually excel in several musical genres and, collectively, create a unique and memorable soundprint, saxophonist-flutist Coke and guitarist Michel bring together a group that includes Austin Symphony principal harpist Elaine Barber, pedal steel player Bob Hoffnar (Liminal Sound Series), double bassist James Suter, and percussionist Carolyn Trowbridge on vibes. Performing compelling music with origins in jazz, classical, folk, extended technique and improvisation, this unique ensemble will perform music by John Coltrane, Valentyn Silvestrov and Paul Motian with new compositions by Coke and Michel in the mix .
