7:30 Doors 8:00 Music $15.00 suggested donation
While his quartet has been described as “the work of a band that’s developed the kind of telepathy only the road can build . . . there’s a late ’70s-early ’80s feel to the music throughout, more akin to the ‘stadium jazz’ of V.S.O.P. or Milestone-era McCoy Tyner” (Philip Freeman, The NYC Jazz Record), trumpeter and composer Michael Sarian has been praised for his “unique compositional and instrumental voice” (Friedrich Kunzmann, All About Jazz) and his “endlessly renewable strain of lyric improvisation regardless of context or material.” (Peter Margasak, Downbeat Magazine).
Born in Toronto and raised in Buenos Aires, Michael relocated to NYC in 2012, and has performed at some of the most iconic international stages, including the Montreux Jazz Festival, Kennedy Center, Teatro Colón in Argentina, Blue Note Jazz Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center, BRIC JazzFest, and Central Park SummerStage. He has appeared on WNYC’s Soundcheck with John Schaefer, NPR’s World Cafe, and many more.
The Noah Garabedian Trio, featuring Vinicius Gomes on guitar and Ele Howell on drums, joins together to explore original music as well as music of Milton Nascimento, John Coltrane, and João Bosco. Their non-hierarchical approach is reflected in moments of spontaneous free improvisation and the transitions into new songs.
