rpklich Posted November 3, 2009 Report Posted November 3, 2009 I got an email form Umbrella: "Due to an unexpected injury this past weekend, trumpeter Bobby Bradford is undergoing a minor surgery that will prohibit him from participating in the 2009 Umbrella Music Festival. We wish him a speedy recovery and hope to have him appear in Chicago in the near future. Despite this setback, festival organizers are happy to announce that one of improvised music's greatest innovators will step into the slot. Saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell will perform Friday, November 6th at the Elastic Arts Foundation in an improvised quartet featuring Dave Rempis on saxophones, Junius Paul on bass, and Frank Rosaly on drums. For the Saturday, November 7th performance at The Hideout, Mitchell will be featured with Mike Reed's Loose Assembly. This set will debut new sextet material featuring the band's special guest. You can find all other lineup, schedule, and venue information at www.umbrellamusic.org. We look forward to seeing you all this weekend!!" . Quote
