Arco Belo Ensemble: Chamber Jazz with Global Roots
August 17, 2018 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$15 – $20
Arco Belo brings together elements of raw, contemporary improvised music, mixing in crisp, through-composed pockets of sweeping dense harmony and a global rhythmic sensibility. At the Red Poppy, the group promotes the release of the first single from its debut album, The Space Between Disguises.
FEATURING:
Simone Baron – accordion
Lucas Ashby – percussion
Nelson Moneo – violin
Ian Ashby – bass
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Arco Belo is an original chamber-jazz project led by pianist, accordionist, and composer Simone Baron, featuring a rhythm section composed of brothers Lucas and Ian Ashby and Canadian multi-instrumentalist Nelson Moneo. The group skips effortlessly from long-form, neo-baroque string counterpoint to sludgy hip-hop pads; post-romantic cadenzas collide in moments of spontaneous noise with reedy prepared piano; guttural bow noises and cascading plectrum bring color to plush hypnotic grooves and sharply angled linear phrases.
