Item Description
One-hour conversation over coffee with pianist Ethan Iverson. (Can be anywhere in the world so long as it can be coordinated with Ethan's touring schedule.)
Ethan Iverson is best known as one-third of The Bad Plus, a game-changing collective with Reid Anderson and David King. The New York Times called TBP ??Better than anyone at melding the sensibilities of post-60?s jazz and indie rock.? TBP has performed in venues as diverse as the Village Vanguard, Carnegie Hall, and Bonnaroo; collaborated with Joshua Redman, Bill Frisell, and the Mark Morris Dance Group; and created a faithful arrangement of Stravinky?s The Rite of Spring and a radical reinvention of Ornette Coleman?s Science Fiction (the latter with Tim Berne, Ron Miles, and Sam Newsome).
In addition to TBP, Iverson participates in the critically-acclaimed Billy Hart quartet with Mark Turner and Ben Street and occasionally performs with an elder statesman like Albert ?Tootie? Heath or Ron Carter. For a decade Iverson?s blog Do the Math has been a repository of musician-to-musician interviews and analysis, which is surely one reason Time Out New York selected Iverson as one of 25 essential New York jazz icons: ?Perhaps NYC?s most thoughtful and passionate student of jazz tradition?the most admirable sort of artist-scholar.?
