Please join us on Friday, May 7, 2004 from 8-10pm at Slought Foundation for a live concert with Marco Eneidi's Sound on Survival, with Lisle Ellis and Peter Valsamis.
Alto saxophonist Marco Eneidi's language reflects his commitment to the sound of mentor Jimmy Lyons. He has collaborated with Cecil Taylor, Fred Firth, Dewey Redman, Don Cherry and Butch Morris as well as founding the
Creative Music Orchestra with the late Glenn Spearman. In 1987, Eneidi formed Botticelli Records, releasing the work of Denis Charles, William Parker, Wadada Leo Smith, and Karen Borca. He appears on Bill Dixon's "Thoughts" and William Parker & The Little Huey Creative Music Orchestra's "Sunrise in the Tone World." (Eneidi will be performing as a member of the Cecil Taylor Orchestra at the Iridium in May 2004.)
Bassist Lisle Ellis studied at the Creative Music Studio before performing with Paul Bley and the Cecil Taylor Quartet. He founded the New Orchestra Workshop (NOW) in 1978 and the Association des Musiciens Improvisaterus de Montreal in 1991. Ellis has recorded over 40 CDs including What We Live's "Trumpets" and Rova's "John Coltrane's Ascension" both featuring Dave Douglas.
Drummer Peter Valsamis studied electronic music from Mills College with Pauline Oliveros, Alvin Curran and William Winant. He has performed with Steve Lacy, Don Preston and Malcolm Goldstein.
This program is made possible in part through the generous sponsorship or support of Philadelphia Weekly and ars nova workshop
