"On Tuesday May 17 at 8:30PM, world renowned musicians Bruce Eisenbeil (Electric and Acoustic Guitar), Katsuyuki Itakura (Piano), and Brian Osborne (Percussion) bring their tour INTO THE SUN to Cleveland. INTO THE SUN explores melodic themes and rhythms found in ancient Kabuki theatre, modern Butoh dance and contemporary jazz improvisation, producing a cutting edge, high energy art form. Harvey Pekar of Jazz Times described Eisenbeil as "one of the most unique jazz guitarists to emerge in decades." The improvisations of Tokyo pianist Katsuyuki Itakura span the range from subtle minimalism to noise. A wide range of percussive tonal instruments are employed by Brian Osborne, and his work with Balinese Gamelan is evident in his musings. Original and exciting, INTO THE SUN is a must-see and hear performance. Tickets $12 ($8 seniors and students with I.D.); full-priced tickets are available for purchase at www.passportproject.org; all tickets available at the door. For more information contact Passport Project at (216) 721-1055. Art of Improvisation Workshop with Bruce Eisenbeil, Katsuyuki Itakura, and Brian Osborne on May 17, from 4-5:30PM.
