 9-11-20\nEvent Date End: 2009-11-20\n\nThe most prominent baritone saxopho
 nist of his generation\, Hamiet Bluiett (b. 1940) combines a blunt\, modes
 tly inflected attack with a fleet\, aggressive technique\, and a uniform h
 ugeness of sound that extends from his horn's lowest reaches to far beyond
  what is usually its highest register. In St. Louis in the 1960s\, Bluiett
  co-founded the Black Artists' Group (BAG)\, an artist collective not unli
 ke Chicago's AACM. And\, in 1969\, he moved to New York City to join the C
 harles Mingus Quintet and the Sam Rivers Large Ensemble. In 1976 he co-fou
 nded the World Saxophone Quartet (along with two other Black Artists' Grou
 p members\, Julius Hemphill and Oliver Lake)\, which soon became jazz musi
 c's most renowned saxophone quartet. Over the years\, Bluiett has also wor
 ked with Babatunde Olatunji\, Abdullah Ibrahim\, Stevie Wonder\, and Marvi
 n Gaye.  Kahil El'Zabar (b.1953) is one of Chicago's jazz treasures. He jo
 ined the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM) in t
 he early 1970s\, and became its chairman in 1975. He regularly records for
  Chicago's Delmark Records and\, during the 1970s\, he formed the acclaime
 d ensembles Ritual Trio and the Ethnic Heritage Ensemble\, both of which r
 emain active today. El'Zabar has performed alongside a myriad of jazz grea
 ts such as Cannonball Adderley\, Pharoah Sanders\, Archie Shepp and Dizzy 
 Gillespie\, but also in the bands of Stevie Wonder and Nina Simone.\n\nSta
