Our artist in residence this month is the incredible guitarist, composer and soundartist Anders Holst. Since returning to Denmark from Holland in 2004, he has been carving out a unique place for himself in the music. He has collaborated with Kresten Osgood and Eske Nørrelykke, released a solo album under the name of Shadow Ray. Collaborated with Mads Emil Nielsen, Sean Carpio and Nils Gröndahl, He has created music for theater and art installations and is an authority on accompanying modern dance performances. He has arranged a festival celebration of Moondogs 100 year birthday asking such performers and composers as Robert Stilman, Michael Rexen, Anders Meldgaard, Rasmus Kjær and Jeppe Zeeberg to write new music inspired by Moondog. We are very exited to be able to present this great artist at the club. he will show 4 very different sides of himself in the 4 mondays he is featured. here are some press quotes:
I spoke of disliking guitars, unless, you see, they're used in the way Anders Holst uses his. But then, he is also a 'sound artist' & therein lies the world of difference, the cause for paying attention to & exploring an interest in textures & tones. - Include Me Out
There is a certain restrained and often sublime magic .... - Downtown Music Gallery, NYC
Anders Holst trades his smoothly impactful vocals for impact of a different sort in Echoes Illuminating The Dark, donning a moody guitar that broods, ponders and wanders like divine musical dust - The New York City Jazz Record
Holst er som katten, sin egen. Han er yderst original. - Jazznyt

kl 22 PRACTITIONER
Ben Goldberg - clarinet
Michael Coleman - piano
Practitioner is performing the music of Steve Lacy’s 1986 album “Hocus Pocus.”Clarinetist Ben Goldberg’s studies and friendship with the late, great Steve Lacy became a deep, rich well of inspiration that he has continued to draw on for decades. The two met in Paris in 1985, while Goldberg was on tour with The Klezmorim. Goldberg hectored the soprano great until Lacy conceded to give him a lesson, at the end of which Goldberg walked away with a gift: a new record called Hocus Pocus. The album consists of six etudes for solo soprano saxophone, each dedicated to a single artist and discipline that Lacy found inspirational - from Harry Houdini (magic) to James P. Johnson (classic jazz piano) to Sonny Stitt (bebop). Lacy wrote that these pieces were “deliberately made so as to be hard to play. [T]hey also contain many of the characteristic 'licks' which comprise the language that I use." Under the name Practitioner (borrowed from the umbrella title for Lacy’s collection of music studies, of which “Hocus Pocus” is one book), Goldberg and pianist Michael Coleman perform this notoriously challenging music in homage to and celebration of Lacy’s contributions.
Ben Goldberg was a pupil of the eminent clarinetist Rosario Mazzeo and studied with Joe Lovano in addition to Lacy. Since 1992, when his group New Klezmer Trio "kicked open the door for radical experiments with Ashkenazi roots music" (SF Chronicle), Goldberg has shaped a career through curiosity and experimentation across many genres and styles. Goldberg is part of Invisible Guy; The Out Louds; Orphic Machine; Unfold Ordinary Mind; Go Home; Ben Goldberg School; and the Ben Goldberg Trio with Greg Cohen and Kenny Wollesen. He is a member of the avant-chamber jazz ensemble Tin Hat, Allison Miller’s Boom Tic Boom, and performs in a duo with pianist Myra Melford called DIALOGUE. Michael Coleman is a pianist, improviser and composer who has worked with Bay Area greats such as Scott Amendola, Marcus Shelby, and countless other improvising musicians and songwriters. Michael is the composer and bandleader of the groups Beep!, Arts & Sciences and CavityFang. In his songwriting project Michael Rocketship, Michael plays all of the instruments and utilizes his home studio as a compositional tool. Apart from performing and touring tirelessly with his own bands, Michael has toured the world with Chris Cohen, tUnE-yArDs, Sean Hayes, Miles Kurosky and Jug Free America.
