🕊🎶#ArtIsAWeapon Tribute to @avantgroidd celebrating the 20th Anniversary of @burntsugararkestra today at @summerstage in #Harlem > Reposted from @burntsugararkestra MAROONS & SUFFRAGETTES: A #GREGTATE TRIBUTE CONCERT CELEBRATING THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF BURNT SUGAR/DANZ A TATE FAMILY PROGRAM FEATURING BURNT SUGAR/DANZ, BURNT SUGAR THE ARKESTRA CHAMBER, HARRIET TUBMAN, RESISTANCE REVIVAL CHORUS, BARDO STEPPERS, AND DJ REBORN Saturday, August 20, 2022 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm Marcus Garvey Park 18 Mt. Morris Park West, New York, NY 10027 Programming will kick off at 6:00PM with DJ and a processional. Burnt Sugar/Danz was founded in 2002 by writer/musician/conductor Greg Tate and dancer/choreographer/filmmaker Gabri Christa as a radical melding of Christa’s profound relationship to movement and Tate’s equally rigorous approach to music. The collaboration they formed was rooted in the work of Burnt Sugar The Arkestra Chamber, the sprawling band of virtuosos that Tate founded and co-led – a multi-generational ensemble inspired by Butch Morris’ CONDUCTION system for improvising orchestras. Burnt Sugar/Danz, which made its debut at SummerStage in Central Park that same year, draws upon the cream of the crop in New York City’s music, choreographic, and dance-performance talent to create innovative, never-before-seen works, live, and in real time. Adopting Morris’ baton gestures and hand-sign vocabulary to dance, Burnt Sugar/Danz presents an alchemical blend of spontaneously composed music and choreography. This 20th-anniversary celebration, held in tribute to Tate, includes guest appearances by @HarrietTubmanMusic, the avant power trio known for its deep fusion of soul, rock, and jazz; the @ResistanceRevivalChorus, a collective of more than 60 women and non-binary singers; the Bardo Steppers, a deep-funk second-line procession of drums and horns led by bassist @MelvinGibbs; and @DJReborn, a trailblazing international DJ, sound collage artist, and arts educator, also the resident DJ for Ms. Lauryn Hill’s world tour and the founder of DJs for Justice. #burntsugararkestra #burntsugardanz #gabrichrista #harriettubman #resistancerevivalchorus #djreborn #bardost https://www.instagram.com/p/ChfqEOPgwih/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
