Myra Melford's Snowy Egret
Pianist, composer, and UC Berkeley music professor Myra Melford is such an essential figure in modern music--and in the history of the RJA--that we've made her our first "three-peat" bandleader. Her writing is lauded for its wide-ranging sources, its surprising melodies and harmonies, its uncommon instrumental combinations, and the space it leaves for intensely focused group improvisations. "Snowy Egret" (the name of her latest band and album) includes several old friends, and its repertoire is inspired by Uruguayan author Eduardo Galeano's Memory of Fire trilogy.
With Ron Miles, trumpet; Liberty Ellman, guitar; Stomu Takeishi, acoustic bass guitar; Tyshawn Sorey, drums
