The setup: After years of writing shows about everything from creationists, Afghan dancing boys and a Frenchman with a penchant for identity theft, Tim Rosser and Charlie Sohne have had it with each other. They have therefore both decided to launch their solo careers at Birdland. On the same night. At the same time. See them as they bicker over who wrote what in their catalog of songs and decide for yourself who will join the ranks of breakout solo acts like Beyonce and Justin Timberlake - and who will be relegated to the dustbin of history. Witness the pair onstage together for the very last time until their inevitable reunion concert. Tim Rosser and Charlie Sohne were finalists for the 2013 Ebb Award. Their most recent show was The Boy Who Danced on Air (2013 NAMTFestival of New Works, 2013 Rodgers Award Finalist).

Over the course of the last year, students in this 6-12th grade NYC public school have taken parts of poems and prose pieces and transformed them into songs about romance, loss and angst with the backdrop of the NYC subway. Under the guidance of their music teacher, the poet and jazz saxophonist, Roy Nathanson, the students have arranged the songs and rehearsed them into multi-layered compositions that provide a generational contrast to 02/Nathanson's Subway Moon songs from his 2009 Enja release, "Subway Moon. " Performed together around a backdrop of Andrew Gurian's video they give a broad sense of the diverse magic of our underground imagination. This will be the fourth incarnation of this collaborative project. This Subway Moon project has been has now been performed at The Gateshead International Jazz Festival in England, The Banlieus Bleus International Jazz Festival in Paris, and at Amerika Haus concert hall in Munich Germany. For the evening, Roy will be joined by vibist Bill Ware (Jazz Passengers), bassist and vocalist Tim Kiah (Sotto Voce), violinist (Sam Bardfeld) and drummer Pete Karp (who also happens to be Institute for Collaboration principal!)

NYC: ALBERT LEE FEATURING: RAMBLIN' JACK ELLIOTT
Grammy-winning guitar legend Albert Lee will perform at THE IRIDIUM JAZZ CLUB (1650 Broadway, NYC - 212-582-2121) on Monday through Wednesday, February 3rd through 5th with shows at 8:30 & 10:30 pm. Lee first came to prominence during a 1964-68 stint in British Blues and R & B stalwarts Chris Farlowe's Thunderbirds. After working in the UK bands for touring country acts such as Bobby Bare and Skeeter Davis, Lee's next full-time berth was two years with the UK answer to the Flying Burrito Brothers and Nitty Gritty Dirt Band-Head , Hands, and Feet. His reputation grew and session work blossomed, including appearances on "The London Bo Diddley Sessions" for Chess and Jerry Lee Lewis' "The London Sessions". This and other work with U.S. based greats led to a permanent position in the Crickets, and by the time that ended Albert had long since made Southern California his home. There he became friendly with Don Everly, who had also settled in Southern California; they played regularly on a formal and informal basis, with Albert contributing to Don's 1974 solo effort "Sunset Towers". The move to California also led to work on sessions for the debut album of Jackson Browne. When the Everly Brothers reunited on September 23, 1983 at London's Royal Albert Hall, Albert was on hand as guitarist and Musical Director. He continued in that role for over 20 years until the Brothers retired. An invitation in 1987 by steel guitarist Gerry Hogan for Albert to play his annual festival led to the formation of Albert Lee and Hogan's Heroes, who remain an active touring force in the UK and Europe - and a recording force worldwide, with 7 albums to their credit. The DVD "Live at the Tivoli" was released in 2011, and the new CD, "On the Town Tonight" was released onFebruary 14, 2012. There is a $35-$55-$75 cover plus a $15 food/drink minimum.
