Musical Style: JazzWith the 1976 release of Rubisa Patrol, pianist Art Lande pushed the scope of iconic record label ECM even further. The vibrancy of the album’s moods remains just as potent after nearly five decades. Originally performing as a quartet and later a quintet, the group played festivals in Europe, California, New York and Florida. With the influences of modern jazz, “free” jazz, electronic, world and classical music, a group sound and identity emerged. As Lande says, it was “a wild, sweet, intense, unpredictable yet clear, controlled chaos.” He continues: “This concert will be a Rubisa Patrol retrospective. All the music will be from our repertoire, includingoriginals by band members and arrangements of other jazz tunes. Mark Isham was a charter member of the group and played on both Rubisa Patrol recordings. He has since had a very successful career writing music for film. Bruce Williamson was also part of the quintet in the ‘70s. Shane Endsley is an amazing improviser, internationally known as a founding member of the band Kneebody. I have collaborated with Shane often over many years in the Russian Dragon Band. Gonzalo Teppa and Dru Heller and are current members of the trio Flex. I know we can bring the Rubisa Patrol music to life and share it with passion and new ideas. Please don’t miss this concert, we look forward to playing for you.” Indeed!“A magical album from start to finish,&nbsp;Rubisa Patrol&nbsp;is an exercise in atmosphere.” -ECM RecordsArt Lande: pianoMark Isham: flugelhorn, soprano saxophoneBruce Williamson: saxophones, clarinetsShane Endsley: trumpetGonzalo Teppa: bassDru Heller: drums
