Two Generations of Jewish Avantgarde: Frank London & Friends Meets Frantic Turtle May 17, 2007

Grammy-winning downtown legend Frank London (Klezmatics) brings together a band of seasoned improvisers to play a set of free-jazz explorations of Ethiopian music. Opening for him is the jazz-poetry/avant-punk outfit Frantic Turtle, with a set of ecstatic antinomian poetics, Hebraic archetypes washed in the exegetical Tonic, straight no chaser from Toledo basements and into New York underground. The concluding collaboration session will rip through age-roofs and convention-chairs!!
