Phillip Greenlief, saxophones are veteran Bay Area jazz improvisers. They played an Earthwise Productions event in 2019 at Mitchell Park Center. Amendola also appeared with Charlie Hunter, T.J. Kirk, Wil Blades and his own bands.
Earthwise's first concert in 15 months, this event is part of a series of free events including 8/7 La Dona and 8/14 David James/Beth Custer/Al Williams (guitar, clarinet, trombone, voice).
Visit the Palo Alto Art Center galleries before or after the show, between 10 and 5, to see art by Lava Thomas, Titus Kaphar and others, "The Black Index" guest curated by Bridget R. Cooks. Although unofficially so, the Earthwise series is in dialogue with the art show, or a reaction to it, or a tribute. How do words, images and melody affect societal change? What is the distinction between the arts and entertainment? How does hearing new music influence the way you see or make art?
