ETHAN IVERSON
'Better than anyone at mixing the sensibilities of post-60's jazz and indie rock.' The New York Times
Ethan Iverson has been making waves in the jazz world for more than decade. Best known as the pianist from postmodern, ultra-progressive New York trio The Bad Plus, Iverson has gone on to play with some of biggest names in jazz today including Bill Frisell, Charlie Haden, Billy Hart and Paul Motian. The 2009 Melbourne International Jazz Festival is pleased to present Ethan Iverson in his solo piano avant garde 'Cocktail Hour'.
FEDERATION BELLS COMMISSION
Also don't miss the opportunity to hear Ethan Iverson's new work commissioned for the very unique Federation Bells in Birrarung Marr.
