Cecil Taylor concerts at REDCAT postponed indefinitely
- Share via
One of the most anticipated jazz shows of the fall, next week’s solo performances by 83-year-old jazz pianist Cecil Taylor at REDCAT, have been postponed. No new dates have been announced.
The news comes just days removed from Monday’s news that a second date had been added for Taylor’s performance after the first show, scheduled for Oct. 24, had sold out.
In a statement released by REDCAT, organizers indicated that they hoped to reschedule another date soon. The concerts were scheduled in conjunction with the Geffen Contemporary’s exhibition “Blues for Smoke,” a show exploring the intersection between blues music and contemporary art that opens Sunday.
When contacted for more information, a REDCAT representative indicated that no reason for the postponement had been given. Refunds are available at the venue box office.
