Past Events

From the archives, with Elliott Sharp, CJMJS, Lotet and Aki Onda.

Composer, multi-instrumentalist and producer Elliott Sharp is not usually associated with the world of jazz even though it was an important influence for him. His decades-long love of the music of Thelonious Monk is here manifest for the first time in an evening of Monk classics.

Trombonist and composer, Christopher McIntyre (CJM) introduces two newly-formed projects of comprovisative electro-acoustic music.

After an extensive tour in Japan, Australia, and Europe, The Project Room is extremely pleased to welcome back composer Aki Onda, who will preform his highly personal work dealing with his own memories, or rather, a trace of memories captured with a handheld tape recorder.

London-based Michael Rodgers returns to New York, joining together with David Daniell, Ateleia (James Elliott) and Tim Barnes in an evening of mixed duos, trios and quartets.

Robert Dick & Jane Rigler (flutes and electronics) plus the premiere of Plateaus

A rare meeting between two musicians who have created together in many situations over the years including the seminal 80's Downtown power trio Semantics (with Ned Rothenberg).

Amy Annelle & Dimestore Danceband, a New York trio plus wildcard melodicists, is an ongoing group-composing and improvising conversation based around guitarist Jack Martin's succinct, affecting melodies, complimented by bassist Jude Webre and drummer Scott Jarvis.

"It feels time to explore my sense of solo playing, and The Project Room is a great place to do it. Some new works for solo woodwinds. And it is always time to continue my long love of playing in a duo with bass players. I'm honored to be joined by Greg Cohen for various and varied duets." - Marty Erlich

An evening of original compositions presented by a new generation of young composers, featuring Kim Anderson, Steven Long, Ben Katz, Caleb Burhans, and Jonathan Shapiro.

Bringing many varied influences to the table, the group is extremely excited to make their debut at the Project Room.
