The Stray Horns Play The Music Of Sun Ra at Musically Minded Academy

About

On the eve of Sun Ra’s 102nd Birthday (in earth years), multi-instrumentalist and composer David Slusser leads a very accomplished and diverse band through some arrangements from Sun Ra’s first two recordings, Jazz (later reissued as Sun Song by Delmark in 1967) on the Transition label, and Supersonic Jazz, the debut on his own Saturn label, both released in 1957. These LPS were 2 of the 3 recordings released by Sun Ra in the 1950’s. The Stray Horns will also present some other Sun Ra material in this concert.
