The Yale Institute of Sacred Music will present the Ike Sturm
Ensemble in a multimedia jazz concert on Friday, November 11 at
8:30 pm in Marquand Chapel at 409 Prospect Street in New Haven.
Integrating jazz and world rhythms in richly textured original music,
the New York-based Ike Sturm Ensemble fuses diverse influences into
a unified, contemporary style. The unique voices of each of its
ten improvising members speak to audiences within a saturated environment
of original artwork painted by artist and clarinetist Madeline Sturm
to complement the sound and form of the music.
Ike Sturm is a bassist, composer, and educator in New York focusing
on the presentation of original music. In addition to leading the
10-piece ensemble in collaborative music and visual art concerts,
he is also active as an educator and clinician. Mr. Sturm was recently
named the Assistant Director of Music for the Jazz Ministry at Saint
Peter’s Church in Manhattan, internationally regarded as the
“Jazz Church,” where he performs and composes original
music for weekly jazz services.
Shape of Day is a 7-part suite that traces the different
perspectives of light encountered throughout a single day. The concert
is free and open to the public. No tickets are required.
