Performance in the spirit and celebration of Aster of Ceremonies
Performance in the spirit and celebration of Aster of Ceremonies
Ellis’s processional, precessional cessation and continuation of movement and music comes to us via his forthcoming release Aster of Ceremonies (Milkweed Editions, 2023). At Performance Space JJJJJerome brings his sax, his laptop, his incomparable style to the stage, to the aisles, and to the surround: carrying forward the memory of his grandfather’s sermons and spirit. This sonic ionic offering will undo lineage while keeping us family–family with flowers, with humans, with bells, and, always, with the wind.
If you are in the UK the time for this event is 20:30-21:00 GMT +1
