Improv_SA and Salon Mijangos are proud to present a performance by Monterrey percussionist Emilio Tamez. Tamez has been involved for many years in the development of an integrated art form of percussive sound. Ethnic textures and colors, sound-poetry, modern structuralism, jazz languages and free improvisation: it’s a work in progress/process.
 
Emilio Tamez has been teaching and giving workshops for more than ten years in Monterrey, Mexico, where his currently resides. He has written five books on drumming expression and technique (unpublished), and has participated in many recordings.
 
He has shared the stage in large ensembles along Gebhard Ulman, Rashied Ali, Jonathan Gollove, Ronnie Burrage, Felix Petry, Andrew Cyrille, Ramòn Lopez, Sonny Fortune, Ratzo Harris, among others. Tamez has performed in Mèxico, Japan, Germany, and the United States.
 
On Friday, Tamez will perform three solo pieces and then do an improvised set with San Antonio musicians Jane Henry, violin; James Sidlo, electric guitar and Sanford Allen, resonator guitar.
 
He also will also be conducting a musical improvisation workshop on Saturday, September 22 at Salon Mijangos. The seminar starts at 1 p.m. and costs $10. Musicians of all levels of skill and experience are welcome to attend.
 
Don't miss this!!! Paul and Jaime can attest to just how mind-blowing this guy is.

I testify. Tamez was great...well worth the time. The jam session at the end was also very cool. The kind of thing you want to see more of in San Antonio.

I really want to go to this but I also really need to be supportive of the wife right now, so we all might go, or I might go myself, or I may just end up at home.

Well, come on by if it's feasible. If not, I understand.

There's always the seminar on Saturday at 1 p.m. I guarantee you'll get something out of that.
