JazzPOP: Alex Cline's Limitless Light Ensemble: Remembering Joseph Jarman
- This is a past program
“Cline is the binding force…he turns the collection of abstract shouts into a conversation, then a dance, then a meditation.” – FreeJazzBlog
Los Angeles drummer Alex Cline convenes an all-star nonet to pay tribute to Joseph Jarman—woodwind player, composer, poet, Buddhist priest, and member of the legendary Art Ensemble of Chicago—who died earlier this year. A major voice in creative music for decades, Cline is best known for collaborations with Vinny Golia, Julius Hemphill, and his brother, guitarist Nels Cline (of Wilco), as well as for his own expansive projects.
