Adam Rudolph & Tyshawn Sorey Duet
“Sorey and Rudolph are master listeners… excellent at noticing, recognizing and ultimately harvesting the tiniest sonic connections of value for extensive development into fully realized gestures.” – Jazz Right Now
Visionary composer/percussionist/drummers Adam Rudolph and Tyshawn Sorey convene to revisit their captivating duet performances of the past several years in New York. The singular music created by Rudolph and Sorey could be thought of as the way that African, African-American, European and other traditions from around the world emerge in their own thoroughly contemporary approach to composition; from another perspective, the forward-searching languages that each has invented are further evolutions of jazz, new music and folk traditions, making what we recognize as contemporary music an archaism in their advanced approaches.
