As part of Angel City Jazz Festival 2015, San Francisco Bay Area bassist and composer Lisa Mezzacappa, "one of the most imaginative figures on the Bay Area creative jazz scene" (San Jose Mercury News), presents the world premiere of her expansive new work Glorious Ravage, a multi-media song cycle for a large ensemble of virtuoso California improvisers.
Glorious Ravage features new film, video and animation by San Francisco Bay Area filmmakers Janis Crystal Lipzin, Kathleen Quillian, Alfonso Alvarez and Konrad Steiner. The work is inspired by the adventures and writings of Victorian lady explorers, who trekked to the wildest parts of the earth, to escape, to discover, and to lose themselves.
Glorious Ravage is performed by: Fay Victor, voice Dina Maccabee, viola Nicole Mitchell, flute Vinny Golia, winds Cory Wright, clarinet and saxophone Kyle Bruckmann, oboes Darren Johnston, trumpet Michael Dessen, trombone Myra Melford, piano John Finkbeiner, guitar Mark Dresser, bass Lisa Mezzacappa, bass Jordan Glenn, drums Kjell Nordeson, vibraphone & percussion Tim Perkis, live electronics
**Part of a double bill with the Mark Dresser Quintet, at 9:30pm
