Presented as part of 2023 NYC Winter Jazzfest
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 modern-day reinterpretation by world-renowned musicians.
Our twentieth edition will feature the pioneering astral traveler Pharoah Sanders and his 1974 album Elevation. Known for creating serene soundscapes, Nate Mercereau and his friends will combine modulated electronics, luscious percussion, and a spiritually-informed musicality throughout this improvised take on an iconic record.
