Concert
Ballroom Marfa presented Chicago Underground Duo at the Masonic Lodge.
Chicago Underground Duo is a critically acclaimed avant-garde jazz duo consisting of cornetist Rob Mazurek (cornet, electronics, piano) and Chad Taylor (percussion, electronics, vibes, guitar), both stalwarts on the Chicago Jazz front. The duo is known for powerful grooves along with ambient sound structures, folk song simplicity and polyrhythmic bursts of energy with lyrical melodic vignettes. Chicago Underground Duo is part of a new generation of music improvisers that emerged in Chicago in the 1990s. Their performances are based on both notated compositions, composed by both artists, and on pure improvisation.
This concert was free and open to the public.
