Interpretations: Anthony Davis // Earl Howard
Composers Anthony Davis and Earl Howard reconvene a bi-coastal quartet built on long-standing associations, to present two sets of music built on complex rhythms and modulating textures. The evening will feature solos, duets, and quartets from Earl Howard and Anthony Davis, including Anthony Davis’s The Goddess Variations for solo piano; and Earl Howard’s work Curtis, for solo Kurzweill 2600 and saxophone.
