Original voice


And if you happen to find yourself at the southern end of the valley on Friday and unable head up north to attend the James Taylor DVD release party, there's always Manhattan. The always fab Whitney Museum of American Art is presenting its Friday night Composers' Showcase with Andy Biskin this week, starting at 7 p.m. It's in the Lower Level Gallery and admission is free.

Here is more about Andy:

"...subtle improvisation and nuanced group interaction"-- All About Jazz

Andy Biskin has emerged out of the jazz and new music scene as a composer with a distinctly original voice and an extremely broad range of interests. With the Andy Biskin Quartet and special guest Theo Bleckmann, Biskin presents Early American: The Melodies of Stephen Foster, as well as new works for various ensembles, commissioned specifically for this performance.
