Burnt Sugar Brings Hot Sounds To Guelph

Press Release by: Paul J. Youngman

Venue: University Centre Courtyard (Guelph, Ontario, Canada)

Friday March 28 at 12:00 PM -

GUELPH – The Burnt Sugar Arkestra Chamber, a New York-based improvisational music ensemble, brings its pan-stylistic sound to the University Centre Courtyard at the University of Guelph, on Friday March 28 at 12:00 PM. This noon hour concert event is open to the public, is free of charge, and will be a live-to-air event, broadcast simultaneously on CFRU 93.3 FM.

Burnt Sugar forges its own musical hybrid by combining various styles, eras, and genres with the use of cutting-edge music technology to explore the connective tissue binding jazz, rock, funk, 20th century composition, and African music in a lyrical, seductive, exploratory, improvisational manner.

Noted author, music writer, and Burnt Sugar founder Greg Tate uses conduction – an interpretative system developed by Lawrence "Butch" Morris – to guide the band through improvisations on each of its song forms. As a result, each performance is an original mutation in tune with the collective personality of the audience, as well as the individual character and talents of the players.

The event is co-sponsored by the Guelph Jazz Festival, CFRU 93.3 FM, and the University of Guelph's Central Student Association.
