The night before the intimate Arden show, The Bad Plus will be performing On Sacred Ground: The Rite of Spring, their adaptation of the Stravinsky masterwork at Cornell. The hall will be nearly 10 times the size of Gild Hall. Our show will be a bit more intimate!
Did you see them in 2009 at the Clifford Brown Fest? See them in 2012 in Arden!
For the past 10 years The Bad Plus have created an uncompromising body of work by shattering musical convention. Rolling Stone called their amalgam of jazz, pop, rock and avant garde "about as badass as highbrow gets," while The New York Times said the band is "better than anyone at mixing the sensibilities of post-'60s jazz and indie rock." Few jazz groups in recent memory have amassed such acclaim, and few have generated as much controversy while audaciously bucking musical trends.
