Karl Evangelista's Taglish @ Which Way West? Sunday Concert Series

Filipino American composer and improviser Karl Evangelista is joined by a slew of Bay Area jazz stalwarts to present Taglish, a musical journey through 21st century immigrant culture. The project synthesizes jazz, American song, 20th century experimentalism, and Filipino folk melody into a sound that is at once universal and starkly personal. This will be the first presentation of the suite since 2014.

Karl Evangelista-guitar, Rob Ewing-trombone, Francis Wong-tenor/soprano saxophones, Cory Wright-baritone saxophone, Rei Scampavia-keys, John-Carlos Perea-bass, Jordan Glenn-drums
