Tomeka Reid Quartet

Soweto Kinch introduces a concert given by Chicago-based cellist Tomeka Reid and her quartet of improvising musicians, featuring Mary Halvorson, Jason Roebke and Tomas Fujiwara.

In tonight's show, Soweto Kinch presents a concert by the Chicago-Based cellist Tomeka Reid and her quartet of improvising musicians, Mary Halvorson, guitar; Jason Roebke, bass; and Tomas Fujiwara, drums. Reid works in both classical and jazz contexts, but is most well-known for her work as an improvising musician and cutting edge composer. She has been commissioned to write new works in recent years by both the AACM and the Chicago Jazz Festival. The Tomeka Reid Quartet play music from last year's eponymous album on the Thirsty Ear label, including compositions by Reid, such as Billy Bang's Bounce, but also work by the legendary reed player Eric Dolphy.
