Fulcrum Point + The Bridge: Epiphany of Improvisation

  • Epiphany Center for the Arts 201 South Ashland Avenue Chicago, IL, 60607 United States (map)

Fulcrum Point New Music Project and The Bridge, a Transatlantic Network for Jazz and Creative Music, present their second collaboration of 2022. Join us as we bring together creative improvisors from France and Chicago for a unique, one-time only concert event.

Eight brilliant improvisors in two sets of spontaneous musical creativity in the awesome acoustic space of the Sanctuary at Epiphany Center for the Arts.

Featuring Christian Dillingham, bass; Gaspar Claus, cello; Carmani Edwards, bass; Angelo Hart, piano; Gerrit Hatcher tenor sax; Erwan Keravec, bagpipes; Chad McCullough, trumpet; with Marvin Tate, voice.

The Bridge is a transatlantic organization that associates nearly 150 French and North American musicians divided into quartets and quintets. This long list respects the sociological diversity of the jazz field: men and women of all generations and backgrounds, who will be brought together, one after another, configuration after configuration. And its aesthetic diversity: music as a means of expression and as a means of experimentation, music as a domain of possibility. All of them show invaluable capacities to share their knowledge and craft, both on- and off-stage.
