Christian McBride's "The Movement Revisited," at the Disney Hall
Christian McBride's “The Movement Revisited," will debut at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles on May 16. The performance concludes the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association's 2007/2008 jazz series.
Christian McBride is the premier bassist on the today's jazz and pop scene. The first choice as collaborator for everyone from Sting and Billy Joel to Sonny Rollins and Pat Metheny, he is first and foremost an outstanding bandleader and composer.
“You could feel the seats vibrate as the band impeccably played their churningly funky, jam-band jazz. Perhaps the most exciting jazz bass player since Ray Brown." -- All About Jazz
In 2008 he premieres his major original work “The Movement Revisited," a musical meditation with chorus and orchestra on the personalities and philosophies of the Civil Rights Movement, in honor of the 40th anniversary of its peak. He continues to excel in a variety of other bandleading contexts and is quite simply without peer on the instrument.
“Bad, bad funky jazz. Improvisations that could only have sprung forth from a date featuring James Brown, Jaco and Miles Davis."
