About this event

Max Schwimmer performs a short concert of klezmer and Eastern European folk music arranged for four saxophones, using live looping to create multi-part arrangements in real-time. Max weaves traditional klezmer tunes into multi-section compositions that augment the saxophone range and sound through electronic effects. Arrangements include other contemporary musical elements such as looped hooks and improvised solo sections. The result is a convergence of past and present sounds, creating sonic landscapes of a new Yiddish world. The project is funded by the City of Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture's Artists to Work grant program.
