New Sounds of East and West

2013 Independent Music Award (IMA) winner Jeff Fairbanks’ big band, Project Hansori, will perform a grant-funded program of new original music, “New Sounds of East and West”. It’s centered on new East Asian-infused Jazz, including our mind-warping take on an ancient ritual shrine ceremony piece. Beautifully set in a Gothic style Episcopal church. The concert will also feature Satoshi Takeishi on his unique array and style of Eastern percussion.
