Lexington Community Education presents: A Tribute to the Music of Ornette Coleman - November 14th from 7:30-9:00pm

A Conversation and Recital featuring Chris Kelsey (saxophone), Lewis Porter (piano) and Randy Sandke (trumpet)

Saxophonist and composer Ornette Coleman (1930-2015) changed the way we hear music. Join Chris Kelsey, Lewis Porter and Randy Sandke as they present a unique tribute to the late master on Saturday, November 14th at 7:30pm at the Follen Church Society, 755 Massachusetts Ave., Lexington . Saxophonist Chris Kelsey and pianist Lewis Porter released a CD demonstrating their novel approach to Coleman’s music--coincidentally within a week of Coleman’s death. On this night they are adding the acclaimed and dynamic trumpeter Randy Sandke. As a bonus, each will speak briefly - Kelsey on Ornette’s impact, Porter on Ornette the man he knew, and Sandke on his concept of “Metatonal music.”

The price for this evening’s event is $10.00 per person. The event will be held at the Follen Church, 755 Massachusetts Ave., Lexington, 7:30-9:00pm
