Ken Aldcroft and William Parker on September 10

by

Aldcroft Parker trp-ds01-014 cover art copy
Tuesday, September 10
Pressed (750 Gladstone)
Set 1: 8pm
Set 2: 9:15pm
$15/set


Some of you may remember Ken Aldcroft from the great Hat and Beard show This past October.  William Parker is, of course, one of the most important improvising musicians of a generation.


The way they answer one another and add shades or colors to each other’s lines is quite special. Like telepathic communication. The dialogue is easy to follow and unfolds in a most organic way.
Bruce Lee Gallanter, Downtown Music Gallery


Aldcroft and Parker are brilliant masters of their art form — one may not be able to whistle along with the “tunes” but it is the collective sounds of their “in the moment” music creations that resonate so impeccably.
Tiina Kiik, The Whole Note
