Simultaneous Windows is the third suite in bassist/composer Bill Noertker's Blue Rider series, a collection of compositions inspired by the art of Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Franz Marc, Robert Delaunay, and Alexei Jawlensky. The Blue Rider group coalesced around the notion of the "inner necessity" of true art, which can be expressed in very different forms and styles. The rich sonic palette and inimitable avant-melodic chamber jazz stylings of Noertker's Moxie create a diverse and vibrant array of aural paintings that evoke the playful chromaticism and ceaseless spiritual questing of this important group of painters.

Cost: $10-$15 sliding scale
