Pianist Myra Melford and clarinetist Ben Goldberg have been playing together
in many settings for ten years now, since Myra moved to Berkeley from New York.
The duo, cryptographically named ::Dialogue::, will present a concert
program of new compositions. Melodic, exploratory, lyrical, swinging,
virtuosic, this is chamber music for the twenty-first century
where composition meets improvisation to surprise and enlighten.
Their music combines the precision of classical music with the
creative spirit and soul of jazz.
Admission: donation. All proceeds go directly to the musicians
