About the program
Tristan Honsinger is a Berlin-based cellist versed in free jazz and improvisation. His violent command of the cello rivals the explosive piano attack of Taylor, whom he performed with in Europe in the 1970s and on a recording, The Hearth (FMP, 1989), with Evan Parker. Honsinger will perform in trio on the Whitney Museum stage in this rare U.S. appearance joined by Harri Sjöström, a Berlin-based soprano saxophonist, who also has a long history of playing with Cecil Taylor, and Okkyung Lee, a NYC-based cellist.
14. April 2016 - Whitney Museum New York
"NEW UNIT" Cecil Taylor, Tristan Honsinger, Harri Sjöström, Okkyung Lee, Bobby Zankel, Elliot Levin,
