Now based in Santa Fe, Brian Haas is a jazz pianist, composer and producer, who has recorded 21 albums and toured the world for two decades with his award-winning ensemble, The Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, a band he started while at The University of Tulsa. Haas is currently in the process of releasing an album project he has recorded for the Kinnara (Sony) label, a suite (as yet untitled) for piano and percussion inspired by stride piano masters Earl Hines, James P. Johnson, and Fats Waller, and by early minimalist composers Philip Glass and Steve Reich, which follows a trajectory through the twelve tones of the Western tempered chromatic scale. For his appearance at The Roost, Haas is joined by Santa Fe-based percussionist Dave Wayne to perform this entire suite, interspersed with duo and solo improvisations.
