“Third Thursdays” featuring Matt Lavelle (musical/poet/visual artist), K.J. Holmes (dance artist), w/host Dave Bryant (keys), Frederick Williams (bass) & James Kamal Jones (drums), in a multi-faceted artistic improv performance to usher in the Solstice.
December’s special edition of the “Third Thursdays” monthly harmolodic jazz series promises to be a synesthetic evening of art, dance, poetry, and music curated by harmolodic scholar and practitioner Matt Lavelle, who is also a multi-instrumentalist (trumpet, alto clarinet), a visual artist and poet in his own right.
For this performance, Lavelle has created a visual and poetic interpretation of his musical concept, which will be further developed by the collaboration with dancer/performance artist K.J. Holmes. Lavelle and Holmes most recently performed in collaboration with drummer Jeremy Carlstedt at the 2023 Arts For Art/Vision Festival held in NYC this past June.
This “Third Thursdays” performance, ushering in the winter solstice, will also feature Dave Bryant (“Third Thursdays” host/improvising keyboardist), Frederick Williams (bass), and James Kamal Jones (drums), all former colleagues of Ornette Coleman.
Matt Lavelle notes that December’s performance “will attempt to cross the boundaries between painting, music, poetry and dance to build bridges among all these genres. Together, the group will create music and movement from the artwork and poetry, seeking unity and possibly an entirely new joint artistic space.”
