    Music of Dmitri Shostakovitch: Michael Bates' Acrobat September 15

    7:30 Door 8pm Show
     
    10 pm: Michael Bates’ Acrobat, a quintet featuring some of New York’s finest improvisers, reimagines several iconic pieces by one of music’s most mysterious personalities.   Led by bassist/composer Michael Bates, Acrobat features five fearless voices sharing a passionate commitment to creativity and artistic beauty. With literal themes by Shostakovich or themes composed with his spirit, “Acrobat” is full of music that is playful yet dark and swinging.  And while Shostakovich is clearly being channeled, the voices of these five fantastic improvisers will be on full display: Beautiful and vicious, elegant and dissonant, and humor laced with serene sarcasm.
