Tatsu Aoki: Miyumi Project
@ Elastic Arts
3429 W Diversey #208, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Saturday, February 2nd, from 9PM - 12AM
Tatsu Aoki’s The Miyumi Project returns with their first performance of 2019. One of the longest standing amalgams drawing from the aesthetics of Japanese traditional music and Chicago’s avant-garde jazz and experimental music. The presentations are improvised compositions that stem from a conceptual framework for each band member to interpret, which is then transformed into a contemporary musical immersion for the audience. Each successive grouping of Miyumi Project musicians over the past two decades have contributed to the unique blending of modern application with traditional sensibility. The final result is a continuous evolution of a “live and raw” musical happening. The current members of Tatsu Aoki’s Miyumi Project are: Mwata Bowden, Coco Elysses, Avreeayl Ra, edward wilkerson jr., Jaime Kempkers, and Kioto Aoki.
