Saco Yasuma’s YOIN’ – Unit of Seven
In this special project at Roulette, saxophonist and composer Saco Yasuma will bring forth her native Japanese melodies and combine them with African sounds to continue exploring the openness of music without boundaries. Spontaneous interactions and organic evolution in the performance will be the other exciting part of this concert. The emnsemble, YOIN’ – Unit Of Seven, is the expanded unit of the trio with Jason Kao Hwang (viola) and Ken Filiano (bass). Saco invited four other extraordinary musicians for this performance including Kaoru Watanabe (Flute, Fue, Taiko), Steve Swell (Trombone), Michael Wimberly (percussion) and Sean Clements (percussion).

Jeremiah Cymerman
On Friday, April 10th composer/clarinetist Jeremiah Cymerman will premiere a dramatic new composition for string quartet and electronics entitled “Under a Blue, Grey Sky”. Through-composed and presented as a five-act audio play, the piece works to strike a balance between the creative control that a conductor exercises over an ensemble with the sonic wizardry of dub-inspired live electronic processing.
