Performance

Peter Brötzmann and Jason Adasiewicz


Ballroom Marfa welcomed these two musicians for a night of hybrid jazz at the Crowley Theater. Adasiewicz’s collaboration with Brötzmann ranged from gamelan-like plinks and plonks to soothing tones that stretched out underneath the manic activity of the saxophone. The resulting performance alternated between complex rhythms and discernible melodies, a cacophony of reedy outbursts and metallic tones, and a field of Adasiewicz’s placid drones upon which Brötzmann splattered his shrieks and skronks.
