Roscoe Mitchell returns to Interpretations for a full evening of chamber works and improvisations...

After a long pandemic hiatus, the Interpretations Series opens its 32nd season on Thursday October 28th, 2021 with NEA Jazz Master and founding member of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Roscoe Mitchell.

A frequent guest on the series, and a featured artist on the inaugural season of Interpretations, Mitchell will offer a range of works spanning over thirty years. The program will feature a new multi-media solo performance that juxtaposes Mitchell live on saxophone and percussion, with himself performing on screen in a video by Wendy L. Nelson. Percussionist Tani Tabbal will join Mitchell for an extended improvised duet, and the evening will include two chamber works: Sunrise on an Ice Moon (2017-18) for solo vibraphone, performed by percussionist Anna Wray; and Cutouts for Woodwind Quintet (1984/85) performed by the Wavefield Ensemble comprised of Roberta Michel (flute), Katie Scheele (oboe), Eric Umble (clarinet), Sara Schoenbeck (bassoon) and John Gattis (french horn).
