720 East Locust Street, Milwaukee
Alternating Currents Live presents: Paul Rutherford
solo trombone improvisations
Trombonist Paul Rutherford has been a stalwart player in the English
free music scene since the middle 1960s, playing in, and contributing
to just about every musical context in the past four decades from more
structured music to the freest possible situations. He has worked
extensively with the Globe Unity Orchestra, the London Jazz Composer's
Orchestra, the Mike Westbrook Orchestra and a myriad of smaller groups
including Iskra 1903, duets with percussionist Paul Lovens, Quintet
Moderne, and in trio with Anthony Braxton and Evan Parker. He is
perhaps most famous for his solo trombone improvisations and his 1974
record The Gentle harm of the bourgeoisie is arguably the best solo
trombone recording of all time.
Paul Rutherford was a surprise guest at Woodland Pattern Book Center in
2002 performing with Lol Coxhill and Torsten Müller. Woodland Pattern's recording of that concert was released last
year on Emanem Records in London as Milwaukee 2002.
This concert is brought to you by the Alternating Currents Live series,
broadcast on WMSE (91.7) FM, Milwaukee.
