The mission of the Deviant Septet is to fulfill the vision Igor Stravinsky had for his “L’histoire du Soldat” ensemble. By commissioning modern composers, the Deviant Septet will complete its primary goal of creating a repertoire for this unique ensemble which is otherwise nearly non-existent. With a roster of highly versatile and experienced chamber musicians, who are also some of America’s foremost contemporary and avant-garde classical music interpreters, the ensemble hopes to attract a renewed interest in the modern chamber music idiom. Through the use of multi-media performances, audience interaction, unique venues, and unusual repertoire and programming choices, the Deviant Septet aims to redefine the modern concert experience.

The Rodney Richardson Trio is one of the few organ trios in Washington DC, featuring original compositions, jazz standards and adaptations of modern jazz and rock songs. With Will Rast on organ and Larry Ferguson on drums, 2 of DC’s top players, the guitar-led trio has a truly unique sound. Vocalist Lena Seikaly has been dubbed “one of the local jazz scene’s most promising performers” and “brightest voices in jazz” byThe Washington Post. Lena is already making her mark as both a revivalist of traditional jazz vocals, as well as an innovator in contemporary vocal jazz styles.

Masterclass with Rodney Richardson and Lena Seikaly at 6:00 PM.

Mark Turner’s elegant, abstract and thoughtful playing has been much remarked on by his contemporaries. Brad Meldau has noted that Mark “doesn’t court the theatrics associated with his instrument… (He is) playing with a direct candor usually reserved for older players.” And the older players, too, have been taking note. Lee Konitz noted, “I think Mark is a very serious contender. He’s really playing lines up there as Warne Marsh could do – and Mark uses that register much more than Warne did.”

Composer/arranger Gil Evans was influential in the development of cool jazz, modal jazz, free jazz and jazz fusion, working with icon Miles Davis on a series of highly praised albums including “Porgy and Bess” and “Sketches of Spain” and working with his own groups. His early career includes work with Claude Thornhill’s Orchestra, the Miles Davis Nonet and after 1957, a series of projects under his own name, featuring Steve Lacy, Cannonball Adderley, Jimmy Cleveland, and Kenny Burrell as featured soloists. He worked with artists outside jazz, most notably David Bowie, Sting and the Police, and a recording of music by Jimi Hendrix. From 1984 until his death in 1988, Evans led a Monday night big band at New York City jazz club Sweet Basil. ATLAS presents Evans’ music with several ensembles including nonet, tentet, big band, and jazz orchestra.
