Ornette Coleman and his Quartet

Date: Sat, Sep 26
Time: 8:00pm
Where: Lincoln Center”s Rose Theater

It’s part of your birthright to love the music of Ornette Coleman. Like Louis Armstrong and     Charlie Parker before him, Ornette thoroughly changed the course of jazz when he exploded on the scene in 1960. Over the past fifty years, Ornette’s music has taken many forms, from his large-scale symphonies to his electric bands. But whatever he plays, it’s as challenging as it is accessible: both food for thought and food for comfort. Be prepared for a wild, adventurous evening of category-defying music that will have you on your feet and cheering.
