The other two band members play percussion and bass, respectively. Young people love them for their tradition-breaking approach to the kora, and older people love them for continuing the art of that instrument.

Sunday, December 3, 2006 2:00 PM MDPAC The MDPAC welcomes the Dave Stevens Big Band back to our stage to usher in the yuletide season with pizzaz. We are thrilled to have Erie-born Dave Stevens partner with the remarkable voice of Robin McKelle - a soul-infused alto tinged with haunting echoes of the postwar jazz greats. Robin evokes the jazzy spirit of 1940’s America, while retaining a contemporary edge that speaks of a new wartime. McKelle breathes fresh life into classics many listeners thought they knew intimately. Her brassy, on-the-fly sound pays homage to the days when jazz orchestras ruled America’s dancehalls and concert theaters. The City Style Swing Dancers are back with new numbers. This show is certain to evoke Christmas memories from glory days gone by!For more information: www.davestevensbigband.comwww.robinmckelle.com

LSaturday, February 10, 2007 8:00PM Walker Recital HallLouis T. Hardin, better known as Moondog, was one of the 20th century’s most respected musical icons, and also a pioneer on the avant garde/minimalist scene, lauded by Philip Glass, who called him the originator of minimalism. A Kansas native, Moondog arrived in Manhattan in 1943 and occupied a street corner on 6th Avenue and 54th Street, where he entertained with homemade drums, portable keyboard, and his own poetry. Swedish born Stefan Lakatos, the inheritor of the unique Moondog percussion instrument known as the trimbas, entertains audiences to Moondog’s legacy, which consists of some of the most beautiful and peculiar music that still amazes listeners all over the world—music that has influenced John Lennon, Frank Zappa, Paul Simon and many others. Project Moondog is spearheaded by local musician Lou Nicolia who will be joined in performance by Lakatos and seven other local musicians. For more information: www.moondogscorner.de

Each explores an aspect of what makes the South, its artists, and the culture of the region unique.

WSaturday, April 21, 2007 8:00 PM Walker Recital HallWith diverse cultural and musical influences, the Fareed Haque Group is opening new doors with a completely fresh approach to world music that grooves and percolates. The group makes its debut with the release of Cosmic Hug, a unique combination of world, jazz, and jam. Earthy, vital, breezy, electric, and truly eclectic, the Fareed Haque Group defies easy categorization. The band approaches the art of jazz improvisation in wide-ranging ways, bringing Middle Eastern scales, American-pop song forms and other far-flung elements to everything they play. Haque’s music is at times exciting and improvisatory, and at others relaxing and lightly settling into a mellow Funk groove. He co-founded the jam super-group Garaj Mahal and his work with Paquito D’Rivera, Sting, Dave Holland, Ramsey Lewis, Nigel Kennedy, and Edgar Meyer has proven him as a solid, versatile performer.
