Creative Music Works is proud to announce our return for the 2024-2025 season, marking a new chapter in our mission to connect artists with audiences while cultivating and enriching the role of jazz, improvisation, and experimental music in Denver's cultural landscape while offering unique music education opportunities.
After a pandemic-induced hiatus, we're back with a focused series of four shows featuring world-renowned innovators and local talents. Our lineup includes national leading artists including the Marc Ribot Quartet featuring Mary Halvorson, Anna Webber’s Simple Trio, and Paolo Angeli, alongside Denver's own cowhause and Hamster Theatre. Each performance promises a unique musical experience that pushes boundaries and inspires audiences.
Marc Ribot, described by The New York Times as "a deceptively articulate artist who uses inarticulateness as an expressive device," brings his quartet featuring Mary Halvorson to the intimate Mercury Cafe. Anna Webber's Simple Trio, known for their "fizzy technical rigor and adventurous spirit," will showcase their decade-long collaboration. In a rare U.S. performance, Paolo Angeli offers singular experience on his prepared Sardinian guitar, a hybrid instrument that defies categorization.
We're also committed to nurturing local talent. By pairing national acts with local openers, we're creating a platform for Denver's innovative musicians to reach new audiences. This approach not only enriches our programming but also strengthens our local music community.
Looking ahead, we will grow and expand our offerings. Your support now lays the foundation for future seasons of groundbreaking performances and educational outreach. By contributing to Creative Music Works, you're directly investing in the vibrancy of Denver's experimental music scene.
Join us in this exciting return to form. Every donation brings us closer to another year of extraordinary performances and musical growth, ensuring that Denver remains a hub for innovative, boundary-pushing music.
