MARY HALVORSON: CANIS MAJOR – Two-Day Residency
Cafè Oto, E8 3DL , [Venue Details]Delighted to present a brand new quartet project featuring all new compositions by Mary Halvorson, featuring Dave Adewumi (trumpet), Henry Fraser (bass) & Tomas Fujiwara (drums).
Guitarist, composer and MacArthur fellow Mary Halvorson has been described as “a singular talent” (Lloyd Sachs, JazzTimes), ”NYC’s least-predictable improviser” (Howard Mandel, City Arts), “one of the most original jazz guitarists of our time” (Peter Margasak, Bandcamp Daily), and “one of today’s most formidable bandleaders” (Francis Davis, Village Voice). In recent Downbeat Critics Polls, she has been celebrated as guitarist, rising star jazz artist, and rising star composer of the year.
Halvorson’s most recent release, Cloudward (Nonesuch Records, 2024), features her Amaryllis sextet, with Adam O’Farrill (trumpet), Jacob Garchik (trombone), Patricia Brennan (vibraphone), Nick Dunston (bass), and Tomas Fujiwara (drums), along with special guest Laurie Anderson (violin) on one track. In a 9/10 review by PopMatters’ Chris Ingalls, the album was described as “a shimmering, deeply satisfying example of a jazz sextet firing on all cylinders. Prepare to be astonished.”
