Bruce Forman - The Red Guitar: a jazz libretto
Imagine receiving an invitation to a gala featuring John Coltrane, Sigmund Freud, and Faust. Bruce Formans The Red Guitar is all that more. It draws on Formans decades of experience as a formidable jazz guitarist and his considerable skill as a storyteller and teacher, producing a work that is greater than the sum of its dazzling parts.
A story in and about jazz, The Red Guitar showcases Bruce Formans genrebreaking inventiveness and his ability to improvise and create within a classical form. Enlisting the full power of the jazz idiom and integrating it with seasoned and provocative story-telling, he confronts the dilemma of artistic obsession face-to-faceby creating a work of art that simultaneously explores and demonstrates the hold that music has over its most ardent followers, the hold that poses itself as a life-or-death, must-be-solved-question to Forman and his ilk: The Red Guitar. Do you play itor does it play you?
Mr. Forman will perform two shows on May 20th at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts, 6:00PM and 7:30PM. Tickets are $20. For more information, please call our office at (831) 624-7491.
