What: Sun Ra was a great composer/arranger/ bandleader/ philosopher whose work was always on the cutting edge of Jazz. It is appropriate that young students who are interested in forging a sound concept of what the music of Jazz is all about, spend time delving into his life, music and philosophy. These themes are explored in the Sun Ra Ensemble classes.
Why: In celebration of National Jazz Appreciation Month/ In a benefit concert for EVCS (East Village Commnunity School)/ The Annual Spring Concert at the New School.

When: On Thursday, April 10, the New School Sun Ra Ensemble can be heard live on Louis Reyes Rivera's Perspective-- Radio Station WBAI, 99.5 FM from 1pm until 2pm. WBAI streams live on the internet at wbai.org
On Saturday, April 12th from 5.30 - 8.30p.m the New School Sun Ra Ensemble will be featured with several other groups at the Cutting Room on 24th street between Broadway and 6th in Manhattan in a benefit concert for the East Village Community School.

Tom Carter

Tom Carter is a guitar player best known for his work with acclaimed psych-drone iconoclasts Charalambides. Since 2000, however, he has become increasingly active as not only a solo artist but as a collaborator. He has performed with improvising musicians as diverse as Thurston Moore, Jandek, Tetuzi Akiyama, Matt Valentine, and many others, as well as being a key member in groups like Badgerlore (with Ben Chasny of 6 Organs of Admittance), Friday Group, Mudsuckers (with Robert Horton and the Yellow Swans), and Zaika (with Marcia Bassett of the Double Leopards and Hototogisu).
Carter’s solo work covers a lot of territory, but latter-day sightings show him to be concentrating on looped guitar drones of immensely stacked beauty, with heaps of psychedelic melodic content missing from the repertoires of many noise and drone bands. His most recent solo releases are a pair of releases on Important Records, Shots at Infinity 1 & 2.
Purple Haze
Purple Haze is Marcia Bassett (Double Leopards, Zaimph, Hototogisu) and Taylor Richardson (Infinity Windows, Prehistoric Blackout).
