Take Two is an immersive deep-listening night consisting of two elements: an uninterrupted, high-quality playback of a seminal jazz album, followed by a live, modern-day reinterpretation by New York City’s finest musicians.

Our fourth event will feature Spiritual Unity, the 1964 free jazz album by the American jazz saxophonist Albert Ayler with bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Sunny Murray.

The live reinterpretation will be conducted by Will Shore with a motley crew of improvisers in the pursuit of an elusive group spontaneity. With the agility and spirit of free jazz, this 8-piece ensemble will take the momentum of Albert Ayler's iconic motifs and develop fully realized arrangements in real-time.

Lineup:

> Dalius Naujo // Drums

> Kenny Wollesen // Percussion

> Brandon Ross // Guitar

> Michael Kiaer // Bass

> Yusuke Yamamoto // Vibraphone

> Christof Knoche // Bass clarinet

> Mike Irwin // Trumpet

> Briggan Krauss // Alto Sax

Take Two will be held in a private loft space in Bushwick featuring vintage Klipsch loudspeakers and comfortable seating arrangements.
