An afternoon of jazz improvisation and exploration inspired by Czech composer Leoš Janáek and his younger Hungarian contemporary, Bêla Bartók. Hear also original works by the talented Czech-born pianist and composer Antonín Fajt. Featuring a New York-based jazz quartet with piano, bass, drums, and saxophone.
Both Janáek and Bartók were enamored of nature and embraced the folk songs of their native lands, and both broke new ground with their modernist approaches to composition. In a contemporary conversation, Fajt and his fellow musicians combine various elements of folklore traditions of Eastern Europe with jazz and classical composition, providing new perspectives and pleasures.
