Idris Ackamoor is a giant in the music of jazz and has been since the 1970s. From Oberlin College (where Cecil Taylor instilled the magnificence of jazz in his students) to Paris (where Donald Robinson and Idris first collaborated) and Africa (where The Pyramids fully coalesced) to San Francisco (where the Pyramids gave way to Cultural Odyssey, a project of Idris and Rhodessa Jones) to today, with the Pyramids continuing to tour internationally, Cultural Odyssey persisting and Idris’s many projects exploding in the popular consciousness, Idris only grows in stature and depth.

Tonight’s quartet will set you on your ear. Don’t miss out!
