Chicago-born, Iraqi-American trumpeter Amir ElSaffar fuses traditional Iraqi Maqam music along with modern jazz, in a new work written for a 16-piece ensemble of Arabic and Western instrumentation. In this concert, ElSaffar contrasts the Iraqi modalities with the heavy grooves and free textures of jazz, yet, always maintaining the feeling of blues. Also appearing are Chicagoans Jeff Parker (guitar); Rudresh Mahanthappa (alto saxophone); Zafer Tawil (violin, percussion) and other special guests. Friday, August 8 - Saturday, August 9
