In 2004 I launched the William Blake Klezmatrix band, featuring Peter Lemer on piano, Madeline Solomon's flute, Annie Whitehead's trombone & vocals, and my readings, songs, jazzpoems & anglosaxophone. We play original compositions, spontaneous improvisations, multiple variations of the biblical, folk, blues, jazz, rock and klezmer grooves, & our settings of William Blake's songs & prophecies – for example, performing The Tyger as a calypso. Last April we toured Belgium, and Colin Still, whose Optic Nerve outfit has produced films (available on dvd) of Allen Ginsberg, Robert Creeley, Michael McClure et al), followed us around, resulting in some revealing footage of WBK rehearsals and performances. I will be introducing and commenting on clips, performing a couple of numbers, and taking Q&A tonight. – Michael Horovitz 8:00pm Golborne Variations Originally recorded in 2010 by JC Carroll, Nick Cash, Guy Pratt, Nigel Bennett, jennifer Pearl, David M.
