Posted 13 Apr 2018 Please join Blue Lake Public Radio this Saturday morning for a special broadcast from the performance studio featuring the duo “Something Holy.” The Transylvanian expatriate pianist Lucian Ban synthesizes a wide range of playing styles, from Abdullah Ibrahim, Keith Jarrett and Cecil Taylor as a pianist to Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn and Ornette Coleman as a composer. He’s joined by Detroit area baritone saxophonist/bass clarinetist Alexander Harding, a good friend of former Blue Laker James Carter, in wildly expressive spontaneous musical conversations. Jazz From Blue Lake with your host Lazaro Vega airs Saturday morning from 7 – 10 a.m. over WBLV 90.3/WBLU 88.9 and www.bluelake.org/listen. #BlueLakePublicRadio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Apr 2018 This program is now available from www.bluelake.org/ondemand under "Studio Performances." Ban is deeply influenced by Abdullah Ibrahim. There's some lovely music played in the program, especially the first number, "Dark Blue." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
