About this Event
After successful tours with Tomeka Reid and Nicole Mitchell as the superb Artifacts Trio, and a series of powerful European concerts with The Separatist Party, drummer Mike Reed returns to Europe to continue his musical journey. For this new collaboration between Sound in Motion/Oorstof and Paviljoen Ongehoorde Muziek, Reed introduces his duo with the unique reed player Hunter Diamond. A previous duo concert of Reed with the legendary Roscoe Mitchell at Antwerp’s Zuiderpershuis - released on the Astral Spirits label - already demonstrated that Reed’s musical versatility provides an ideal canvas for his carefully chosen partners. Now, with Diamond, he brings a dynamic new player from the Chicago scene to European audiences.
Inspired by legendary recordings of drum/sax duos like “Duo Exchange”(1972) by Rashied Ali and Frank Lowe, “Interstellar Space” (1974) by John Coltrane and Rashied Ali or “Force”(1976) by Max Roach and Archie Shepp, Diamond started “Metal and Wood” a live recording residency of improvising duos in 2020 with Dana Hall, Charles Rumback, Quin Kirchner, Lucas Gillan and of course Mike Reed and released through his label Curio Records.
