Master bass-player Barre Phillips comes to New York to play his first solo concert in over 30 years. He was the first musician to record an album of solo double bass, back in 1968, and released what he says will be his last solo album, End To End, on ECM Records last year. It is a beautiful and moving musical statement, highlighting the qualities we associate with his playing– questing adventurousness, melodic invention, textural richness, developmental logic, and deep soulfulness. An evening not to be missed.
