Schlippenbach Globe Unity Orchestra – Three-Day Residency - Day Three
An underground, nostalgic jazz night.
We are thrilled to welcome the legendary Schlippenbach Globe Unity Orchestra to Cafe OTO for a three-day residency coinciding with the group's 60th anniversary!One of the oldest and most important free-jazz orchestras in the world, the group has been on our wishlist since we first opened. We're hugely excited to finally host them in the venue for their 60th anniversary celebration. Originally composed by Alexander von Schlippenbach in 1966, “Globe Unity” is an exclamatory free-jazz piece for big band that challenged mid-century European art norms.
