SUMMARY:Lisa Mezzacappa + Miya Masaoka (NYC)
DESCRIPTION:  \nInnovative\, eclectic string music and improvisations \n  \nMaster koto player\, multi-disciplinary composer\, and virtuosic improviser Miya Masaoka returns to the Bay Area for an intimate concert at the Red Poppy. A pioneer of works for koto and electronics\, Masaoka has created music for So Percussion\, Bang on a Can\, sfSound\, Alonzo King’s LINES Ballet\, and many others. In her pieces she has investigated the sound and movement of insects\, as well as the physiological response of plants\, the human brain and her own body. Within these varied contexts her performance work investigates the interactive\, collaborative aspects of sound\, improvisation\, nature and society. \n  \n  \n  \nBay Area bassist Lisa Mezzacappa‘s new string group is inspired as much by the songs of Bob Wills as the string quartets of Bartok and the free jazz epiphanies of Billy Bang. After so many years of playing with saxophones\, trumpets and drum sets\, Mezzacappa has recently found herself called back to the string family\, where so much acoustic fun can be had with subtle textures\, blending timbres and explosive rhythms. The group is composed of some of the Bay Areas’s finest improvisers\, navigating Mezzacappa’s squirley compositions and unusual arrangements. \n  \nSet 1: \nMIYA MASAOKA – koto\, plus guests to be announced \n  \nSet 2: \nLISA MEZZACAPPA STRING BAND \nMurray Campbell – violin\nCrystal Pascucci – cello\nJohn Finkbeiner – acoustic guitar and banjo\nLisa Mezzacappa – acoustic bass\nJordan Glenn – percussion \n  \n\nThe New York Times calls Miya Masaoka “an explorer of the extremes of her instrument.” \n  \n“Bassist-composer Lisa Mezzacappa is one of the most imaginative figures on the Bay Area creative jazz scene.” – San Jose Mercury News \n  \nMiya Masaoka at the Berkeley Art Museum in 2011 on YouTube\nVisit MiyaMasaoka.com\nVisit LisaMezzacappa.com \n  \n$10-$15 admission.

SUMMARY:Fernandito Ferrer
DESCRIPTION:  \nFrom Puerto Rico: singer-songwriter Fernandito Ferrer \nBorn on july 27th 1978\, Fernando Antonio Ferrer Cruz has been a young pioneer among the new breed of singer-songwriters in Puerto Rico. He first appeared on stage in Lares ’97 and from then on has gotten himself known all around the Island and abroad. Originally from San German\, Ferrer draws from the Nueva Trova giants of the ‘70s but has also developed his own language within his work. His percussive guitar technique and impressive vocal abilities together with the good use of subtle yet powerful melody and poetic imagery puts this small-towner’s music in a much wider context. \n  \nHis style is best compared to the works of Tracy Chapman\, Annie D’Franco\, Antonio Caban Vale\, Silvio Rodriguez and Nick Drake. In January ’02 he published his self-produced dedut album “Después de Tanto Tiempo” recorded in Santo Domingo. In it he merged his prior influences as a drummer\, his love for jazz and his passion for folk music from around the globe. The end result is a soothing sound that although undeniably latin overcomes all territorial boundaries. Since then he has appeared in several festivals and recordings in the Dominican Republic\, Puerto Rico\, Cuba\, the United States\, Honduras and Mexico \n  \nFernandito Ferrer On ReverbNation \n  \n$10 admission. Doors at 7:30 pm. Show at 8:00 pm. \n

SUMMARY:Sangati Center Presents: Gautam Tejas Ganeshan
DESCRIPTION:  \nGautam Tejas Ganeshan \nCarnatic music with distinction and an inimitable style \n  \nGautam Tejas Ganeshan sings classical Carnatic music with distinction\, innovation\, and an inimitable personal style. Dubbed a “local treasure” by SF Classical Voice\, and “a magnet for local Indian classical musicians” by the SF Chronicle\, Gautam has galvanized the local scene\, his compelling musicality and unique approach enabling him to inflect a tradition through himself so that listeners feel it speaks directly to them\, and that its subtle beauty has grown new roots. Gautam’s music expresses authenticity more than ethnicity\, immediacy more than nostalgia – it is “new music from an old tradition” (SFJAZZ Festival)\, representing the “ecstatic edge of contemporary Indian classical music” (SF International Arts Festival). \n  \nHis performances feature original compositions rendered with the extensive vocal improvisation and traditional rhythmic rapport within the ensemble for which South Indian music is known. Fundamentally committed to musicianship\, his concerts also give place to the art of the song\, wherein prosody and rhyme feature as musical elements\, and melody is jointly narrative with meaning. His texts in his native tongue – born in Texas with the middle name to show for it – allow his listeners an unprecedented experience of the structure of Carnatic music\, and a natural purchase on its elaborate song forms. \n  \nGautam Tejas Ganeshan – song\nAjay Narasimha – violin\nKarthik Gopalratnam – mridangam\nGanesh Ramanarayanan – kanjira\nChristina Boyd – tambura \n  \nRead about Gautam Tejas Ganeshan  \n  \n$12-20 Admission. Doors at 7:30pm\, Show at 8:00pm.

SUMMARY:Last Night
DESCRIPTION:Paintings by Patrick St. Clair\n  \nMonday January 13th – Thursday 31st 2013 \n  \nArtist Reception Thursday January 24th\, 6-9pm \n  \nThe Red Poppy Art House is pleased to present Last Night\, an exhibit of paintings by San Francisco artist Patrick St. Clair. In this collection\, semi-abandoned spaces allow for a netherworld where structures and remnants left by people have been partially reclaimed yet still retain a human presence\, seen and unseen at the same time. \n  \nPatrick St. Clair juxtaposes the man-made and nature as elements at once in conflict and in harmony. His use of dilapidated and graffitied structures represents a hidden world of interlopers where nature reclaims the manmade and wanderers explore it as they would a garden. The juxtapositions create narratives that veer into territory that may be surreal or magical-realistic. St. Clair risks this for the sake of attempting to recreate a subjective experience of urban walkabout. In depicting scenes that not only exist in the margins between the urban and natural but are also abandoned of all life and shrouded in an eerie darkness\, St. Clair creates a world that is unreal and seems only to exist in hazy\, youthful memories of last night. \n

SUMMARY:Double Bill: Chives + Sturdy
DESCRIPTION:West Coast CD Release Celebration for CHIVES’ sophomore release\, Dads. \n \n  \nCHIVES represents the collective musical output of bassist Matthew Wohl\, multi-reedist Steven Lugerner and drummer Max Jaffe. Their music is a continuation of the jazz trio continuum – yet CHIVES’ repertoire is heavily influenced by the world of songwriting. Their third recording\, Dads\, was released on Primary Records in August 2012 to critical acclaim. \n  \nCHIVES is not only a platform for fluid improvisation and composition but a story of common experiences\, aesthetic intentions\, and beginnings. Born between 1987 & ’88\, CHIVES each have Jewish roots from their fathers with Australian (Wohl)\, Mexican (Lugerner) & Korean (Jaffe) roots from their mothers. They grew up together in Burlingame\, California surrounded by peers and teachers that nourished their musical sensibilities\, and have collaborated together in various settings since middle school for a total of thirteen years – more than half their lives. After recording their debut self-released album Arnold\, CHIVES collectively relocated to Brooklyn\, NY. During their first two years in New York\, CHIVES produced and released For Brian Wilson\, a dedication to Major League Baseball’s Brian Wilson – closing pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. Dads is yet another dedication\, this time to the men who introduced them to the beautiful game of baseball; Steve Wohl\, Jeffrey Lugerner & Mark Jaffe. \n  \n“Chives are a limber group –  the rhythm section (Jaffe & Wohl) bring elasticity and bounce to the alternately airy and driving grooves as Lugerner tangles with the themes\, sometimes playing inside them and sometimes soaring far afield.” – Peter Margasak (Chicago Reader) \nSteven Lugerner – Bass Clarinet\, Alto/Soprano Saxophones \n Matthew Wohl – Bass \n Max Jaffe – Drumset \n  \nSTURDY : sound in design and execution \n  \nChris Sullivan – Alto Saxophone \nHenry Moser – Guitar \nTommy O’Mahony – Bass \nNick de Ryss – Drums \n  \nwww.chivesmusic.com \n  \nAdmission $10 – 15. Doors at 6:30pm. Show at 7:00pm \n
