Phillip Greenlief
Thursday, September 22, 2016
Known internationally for his recordings and performances with musicians and composers in the post-jazz continuum, Oakland-based saxophonist Phillip Greenlief makes music that keeps time with Ireland’s do-it-yourself ethos. On the occasion of The Echo, he performs a live, improvisational set that responded to The House’s spatial acoustics. Greenlief roves through The House, “reading” it as if it were sheet music, creating a contemplative and ambient listening experience for visitors as they meandered through the space.
