SUMMARY:BALLISTER and Jason Adasiewicz Bring New Horizons in Sound to the B
 OP STOP
DESCRIPTION:\nTue 4/1 @ 8PM\nCleveland has a couple of organization dedicat
 ed to presenting challenging avant-garde and experimental music. One of th
 em is New Ghosts\, now celebrating its 10th anniversary of doing so\, back
  at Now That’s Class.\nMost of its recent shows have been co-hosted with
  the BOP STOP\, and that’s where their upcoming show will be\, when they
  present BALLISTER\, a trio featuring two Chicago-based musicians — sax 
 player Dave Rempis and cellist Fred Lonberg-Holm — and one Norwegian\, P
 NL\, on drums. The improvisational ensemble came together in 2009. Their b
 io tells us that their “sliding and overlapping rhythms often give the m
 usic a feeling as if a rug is slowly being pulled out from underneath the 
 listener while the music still maintains a strong forward momentum\,” in
 fluenced by predecessors such as the 70s and 80s music of alto sax player/
 composer Julius Hemphill\, Miles’ Davis’ early ’70s electric bands\,
  and Ornette Coleman’s free jazz/funk ensemble Prime Time. Together\, BA
 LLISTER has released 11 albums including last year’s Smash and Grab\, an
 d toured both Europe and North America extensively.\nThey’ll be joined a
 t the BOP STOP by Chicago vibraphone player Jason Adasiewicz\, a major fig
 ure in the improvised music scene. He’ll be performing solo transcriptio
 ns of music by 84-year-old jazz sax/flute player Roscoe Mitchell\, an infl
 uential musician from Chicago’s avant-garde music scene with such groups
  as the Art Ensemble of Chicago (which he founded) and the Association for
  the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).\nTickets are $20\, but like
  their fellow presenters of experimental\, improvisatory music\, the Cleve
 land Uncommon Sound Project (CUSP) they say no one will be turned away bec
 ause they don’t have enough money. And that’s not an April Fool joke 
 — in this scene\, presenters are evangelists for the musicians.\nballist
