Reduction 7 – The Ginten Legacy

@ Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago

220 E Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60611

Opening Saturday, December 7th, from 7:30 p.m. - 9:30 p.m.

Classical masters Hyakkyou Fukuhara (flute/percussion), Chizuru Kineya (shamisen) and Shijuro Tachibana (kabuki dance), will be joined by a critically acclaimed roster of jazz artists including percussionist Hamid Drake, poet and musician Coco Elysses; JoVia Armstrong, the winner of Black Women in Jazz Awards’ 2014 Best Black Female Percussionist of the Year and, direct from France, drummer and improviser and Yuko Oshima.
