The BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center has announced its 2007 Lost Jazz Shrines series, which will focus on New York’s Tin Palace.
This year’s Jazz Shrines encompasses three concerts featuring Oliver Lake, Reggie Workman, Andrew Cyrille, the Luciana Souza Trio, Giacomo Gates, George V. Johnson, Jr. and others. The series’ two remaining concerts will be held June 1 and June 15.
Each concert is proceeded by a free Humanities Program with live interviews and films, showcasing some of the celebrated figures associated with the venue, including Paul Pines, former owner and music booker.
Tin Palace opened in the fall of 1970 at Bowery and Second Street in New York’s East Village. Pines presented an array of jazz from classics and standards to fusion as well as a series of Brazilian percussionists, some of whom used silverware and salt shakers as musical instruments.
Tickets for the concerts are $25 for general admission, $15 for students and seniors.
