Berklee Performance Center Concerts

July 19 - Journey to Inland — Moksha is an eight piece Berklee faculty
band led by trumpet player/composer Wayne Naus. The unique instru-
mentation (electric trumpet, Viatar, Bass, Synthesiszer,
EitherwayTheremin, Drums, Tenor Sax, Sound Design and
Percussion)combined with original computer animation, takes each
listener on their own journey through a landscape of sight and sound.
The 70-minute nonstop performance is approximately 40% written music
and 60 % improvised. When asked what style the music is in, the band
prefers to say, “its not about a style...it's about an adventure.”

experimentations with eastern melodies and heavy western grooves with

guitarist David Fiuczynski.

the core of the funky soul-jazz grooves that provide a vehicle for improvi-
sations led by faculty saxophonist Daryl Lowery. The highly original

Ron Mahdi, acoustic bass, Dennis Montgomery lll, B3, and Yoron Israel,
drums, is reminiscent of the organ-based groups of John Scofield and

Wilson, Don Patterson and Leon Spencer. This concert will introduce
some brand new music as well as selections from their recently released
CD.

July 22 - Scott Tarulli and Don Lappin — Rock fusion guitarists Tarulli
