Ambrose Akinmusire Owl Song featuring Bill Frisell and Herlin Rile
June 21 @ 7:00 PM PDT
Ambrose Akinmusire is obsessed with beauty. The trumpeter, composer and ever-evolving sonic explorer is known seeking out new musical frontiers, and his Owl Song trio has become one of his primary vehicles for investigation. Featuring guitar legend Bill Frisell and New Orleans drum poet Herlin Riley, the stripped-down ensemble ranges across a broad expanse of American music guided by an unhurried conversational ethic. A standout player since his years at Berkeley High, Akinmusire has distinguished himself at every step, from winning the Thelonious Monk International Trumpet Competition in 2007 to delivering critically hailed commissioned works for the world’s most august stages, including the Monterey Jazz Festival, the Berlin Jazz Festival, and the Kennedy Center.
