Title:  Phenomenal New Music, Improv and a trio of ideas, Master pianist/composer, Anthony Coleman

This Music Series: An Appetite for Adventure continues…   Not familiar with the trio of Musicians? You owe it to your musical self and curiosity to find out. Best reason to hear music on a weekday especially if your weekend is empty! Anthony Coleman, piano, composer, NY/Boston (NEC) Yoona Kim, Ajaeng (traditional Korean string instrument) Greg Kelley, trumpet, electronics.   An original you can’t find anywhere, except right in your backyard performing soon. And led by an unsurpassed maestro of compositions, improvisations and playing so alluring! A Rare public performance in Boston by Mr. Coleman though very much in demand playing from New York to international destinations. One of the true geniuses of New Music pianists and composer’s—and from the improv angle—a weekday experience you can’t afford to miss!   Anthony and Yoona recently in multi-performances in New York, she a former member of Coleman’s NEC’s notable Survivor’s Breakfast.   This Music/TM Series: This Music (TM) Series is a Boston musician’s initiative to recognize the creativity of many who haven’t been given the stage as leaders, often younger than the Jazz scene veterans; those with acknowledgement who can create a new project and musical ideas; and the unsung “gems” who aren’t in the public’ eye and deserve to be. The emphasis is on the freer forms, the adventurous (to help find a “home”).   Anthony Coleman:  “Anthony Coleman is a prolific composer and pianist who has recorded numerous CDs under his own name, and has played on more than 150. His compositions have been commissioned and performed throughout the world. In the 1980’s, he was an important participant in what became known as the Downtown Scene, along with Glenn Branca, Elliott Sharp, Marc Ribot, and John Zorn, which broke down musical barriers, stretched genre definitions, and introduced Radical Jewish Culture as a compositional and improvisatory element”. Steve Coleman, Arts Fuse (boston), 2018: “Part of what sets Anthony Coleman's (b 1955) music apart from that of his contemporaries is the intensely focused intellectual force with which he pushes against the sybaritic outward-moving impulse and compresses multiple vocabularies around a core poetic. Though compressed, the vocabularies do not merge or blend, they fray at the edges where the play of opposing forces is most intense, and languages contaminate and confuse each other”. New World Records.

Nmperign’s second Compact disc implemented in 1999, and in 2000, Kelley started releasing some recordings for single trumpet, including Trumpet and Clear Gestures.

His 2002 produces included a single record entitled EASILY Never Match You ON THIS Life, I WANT TO Feel THE SHORTAGE, a trio disk with Flaherty and Chris Corsano, and some albums with both nmperign and fellow trumpeter Axel Dörner.

During the 1980s and 1990s he worked with John Zorn on Cobra, Kristallnacht, The Big Gundown, Archery, and Spillane and helped push modern Jewish music into the 21st century. From the Sarajevo Jazz Festival to the Jewish Culture Festival in Krakow, Poland, Anthony Coleman’s musical odyssey has taken him through many cultures and led him to wear many hats as composer, improvising keyboardist, and teacher. Coleman joined the NEC faculty in 2006, returning to a school where he himself studied in the 1970s, during the birth of NEC’s Contemporary Improvisation program (then called Third Stream).
