Enjoy an hour long concert, getting your groove on to this American music form developed especially from ragtime and blues and characterized by propulsive syncopated rhythms, polyphonic ensemble playing, varying degrees of improvisation, and often deliberate distortions of pitch and timbre. Trumpeter Ingrid Racine transgresses stylistic categories and geographic boundaries in pursuit of her own authentic sound as an improviser and composer. Steeped in the traditions of early jazz and Detroit’s hard bop, she also melds rock, hip-hop and aesthetic influences from across the globe to arrive at her unique sound, which is both confident and versatile. Racine’s Quartet features Michael Malis on piano, Marion Hayden on bass and Tariq Gardner on drums.
