Ra Kalam Bob Moses and the Heart Breath Ensemble

A mainstay in creative music, drummer Ra Kalam Bob Moses took early inspiration from growing up in the same NYC building as Max Roach, Art Blakey and Elvin Jones, propelling him through a prolific career that has found him in collaboration with Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Charles Mingus, Gary Burton, Dave Liebman, Keith Jarrett, Jaco Pastorius, Paul Bley, Billy Hart, Sheila Jordan, Tisziji Munoz, and Jim Pepper among countless others. He has appeared on hundreds of recordings. This concert features longtime collaborators Randy Brecker, Don Pate and Daniel Carter.
