Title: The Andy Statman Trio
Location: IronWood Studios
Description: Cost: $20
Age limit: All ages
Description: Andy Statman’s music is at once progressive and traditional, reframing traditional Jewish folk music in an improvisational model based on John Coltrane’s celestial jazz explorations of the 
1960s. Statman grew up in Queens. Influenced by the Greenwich Village folk revival, he picked up the mandolin and moved to Nashville in the mid-1960s, where he became part of that city’s nascent newgrass scene. His profound spiritual response to Coltrane about that time led him on two parallel but related musical journeys: first, back into the klezmer of his youth, and second, into a rigourous program of jazz improvisation. Statman picked up the clarinet and started playing an avant-garde, improvisational version of traditional Jewish folk music, a startling fusion of old and new that combines elegant formalism with adventurous musical freedom. (For you bluegrass fans put off by a fear of out-there jazz, he also still plays mandolin.) (Matthew Everett)
