Michael Foster's The Ghost Trio (NYC) + Alex Cunningham

The Fine and Performing Arts Department at Saint Louis University presents free jazz trio The Ghost on Saturday, April 27 at 8 PM in the Mark Wilson Studio Theater on the ground floor of Xavier Hall on the campus of Saint Louis University.

The Ghost is a trio lead by Michael Foster, which approaches the free jazz tradition from a uniquely queer angle. The Ghost recontextualizes the masculinist aesthetics of free jazz as a homoerotic exchange of histrionics, trust, and radical dynamic shifts through a combination of free improvisation and compositions that range from originals to forgotten standards. 

The Ghost is Michael Foster (saxophones/samples/compositions), John Moran (double bass), and Joey Sullivan (drums).

St. Louis violinist Alex Cunningham will open the show with a solo set.

This event is Free and open to the public.
