Yael Zamir Quintet: A Serenade To Roland Kirk | Live At The Count's
The Yael Zamir Quintet presents an evening celebrating Roland Kirk's extraordinary contributions to jazz flute and multi-instrumentalism.
Award-winning jazz flutist Yael Zamir is known for her expressive improvisation and distinctive sound. After studying classical flute Yael completed a Bachelor of Music at Monash University specialising in jazz flute performance. She has since become a strong presence in Melbourne's jazz scene performing alongside renowned artists such as Tony Gould Lior and Panorama Brasil.
A deeply spiritual artist Roland Kirk often drew inspiration from his dreams-including one in which he played multiple saxophones at once. Driven by this vision he customised his instruments and taught himself the technique at just 16. He became renowned for his ability to play several horns simultaneously as well as for his vivid and expressive approach to the flute. Kirk remains one of the most original and eccentric voices in jazz history.
Expect a full swing band celebrating Kirk's vibrant flute and saxophone playing alongside original compositions. A night of virtuosic jazz and unforgettable musical moments awaits.
