Description
Chicago cornetist, composer and presenter Josh Berman has toured the U.S., Canada, Japan and Europe, and has collaborated with many of today’s most acclaimed improvisers—including Fred Lonberg-Holm, Ab Baars, Guillermo Gregorio, Jeff Parker, Tobias Delius and Robert Berry. Berman has also performed as a member of Rob Mazurek’s Exploding Star Orchestra, Ken Vandermark’s Crisis Ensemble, and Jeb Bishop’s Lucky 7s. He is co-leader of Chicago Luzern Exchange, whose debut on Delmark Records, Several Lights, the Chicago Reader named one of the top ten local releases of 2005.

For tonight’s first set, Josh will inprovise with drummer Weasel Walter and alto saxaphonist Aram Shelton. The second set will consist of new compositions by Berman written for a quartet, and will feature clarinetis Ben Goldberg and bassist Devin Hoff.
