Noted jazz pianist and polymath Ethan Iverson (best known for his founding role in The Bad Plus) is now writing formal scores for classical players.
Tonight he brings clarinet star Carol McGonnell and up-and-coming string quartet Orange Road to Salon 58 for the New York premiere of The Benny Goodman Sextet, a serious yet fun chamber work that draws on both classical and jazz influences.
McGonnell and Iverson will also duo on Iverson’s Clarinet Sonata, one of six acclaimed Playfair Sonatas released last year.

As a pianist, as a composer, and as a critic, Ethan Iverson has long celebrated both the rich tradition and continuous evolution of jazz. So, it seems only fitting that he would eventually take his place on the roster of Blue Note Records, which has provided a home for innovation rooted in the music’s foundations throughout its eight-decade history.
Iverson makes his Blue Note debut with Every Note Is True, an engaging and evocative date featuring a masterful new trio with bassist Larry Grenadier and legendary drummer Jack DeJohnette. The album is an opportunity for the pianist to look back at and expand upon his own musical history including the pop/rock-influenced jazz style of The Bad Plus, the influential trio that Iverson co-founded in 2000.
Since leaving The Bad Plus in late 2017, Iverson has undertaken a diverse range of projects including collaborations with iconic drummers Billy Hart and Albert “Tootie” Heath; recordings with trumpeter Tom Harrell and saxophonist Mark Turner; and compositions for orchestra, big band, and the Mark Morris Dance Group. Each of these, alongside his acclaimed, long-running blog Do the Math and his writings in publications including The New Yorker and The Nation, have allowed Iverson to explore his inspirations from a variety of perspectives.
