    Please join us for this very special 10th anniversary celebration featuring the first ensemble presented by Ars Nova Workshop (in March 2000), Chris Speed's Yeah No. Come early for celebratory drinks and cupcakes! Like a number of key figures in the Downtown music scene, Chris Speed grew up in Seattle before relocating to Boston to attend the New England Conservatory. There he co-founded the collaborative ensemble Human Feel, with drummer Jim Black, alto saxophonist Andrew D'Angelo, guitarist Kurt Rosenwinkel, and bassist Joe Fitzgerald. Speed was also a member of Orange Then Blue, the creative big band led by drummer George Schuller (son of Gunther). Soon after moving to New York, Speed joined several pioneering ensembles including Tim Berne's Bloodcount, the Dave Douglas Sextet, and Myra Melford's The Same River, Twice - critically acclaimed as three of the 1990s' top working bands in jazz and improvised music.
