DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: Art Ensemble of Chicago=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.phillyfunguide.com/event/detail/56573=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2010-03-06=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2010-03-06=0D=0A=0D=0AArt Ensemble of Chicago  Roscoe Mitchell, reeds; Hugh Ragin, trumpet; Harrison Bankhead, double-bass; Famoudou Don Moye, drums + percussion   Founded in 1969, the Art Ensemble of Chicago is the flagship ensemble of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM) and one of the most influential collectives in jazz history. Originally comprised of saxophonists Roscoe Mitchell and Joseph Jarman, trumpeter Lester Bowie, bassist Malachi Favors, and later, drummer Famoudou Don Moye, the Art Ensemble of Chicago are pioneers of multi-instrumentalism and, for over 40 years, have given unforgettable performances in which music, ritual and Dadaist theatre are interwoven. Their performances combine elements of jazz's history and pre-history--music from the sanctified church services, minstrel shows and bawdy houses of late 19th and early 20th century America - with a modernist spirit of experimentation. Join I House for this rare visit from one of America's greatest artistic treasures.=0D=0A=This event is co-presented by Ars Nova Workshop.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:8 pm
