A Modern Tribute to Ornette Coleman

BOSTON - Jan. 29, 2015 - PRLog -- On Tuesday, February 3rd, 2015 Beat Brasserie (aka Beat Hotel), located in Cambridge’s Harvard Square, presents a modern tribute to Ornette Coleman with an evening of live performance by Noah Preminger featuring creative takes on some of the singer/songwriters’ most iconic work.

Ornette Coleman’s talents are multi-faceted and include: saxophonist, violinist, trumpeter and composer.  His album “Sound Grammar,” received the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for music, and he was a leader of the free jazz movement of the 60’s, inventing the term “free jazz” by naming his album as such.  To honor the iconic musician, Noah Preminger will hit The Beat’s stage for a special tribute from 8:00PM-12:00AM. Preminger is a Brooklyn based American jazz saxophonist whom The Hartford Courant said, “[plays] with the grace and expressiveness of a jazz veteran, the young man with a horn mixes cool restraint with emotional depth and old-fashioned poetry with contemporary bite.”  Just 26 years old, he has recorded his third album and second for Palmetto Records. “Haymaker” was released 2 years ago.

While enjoying music, guests are welcome to a full dinner with selections such as the Sweet Chili Baby Back Ribs ($15), Earth Bowl, with your choice of protein, 5 grain pilaf, chickpea and tomato soup, roasted vegetables, rainbow carrots, turnips, pumpkin, broccoli, tahini and more ($23-26), and Herb Roasted Rack of Lamb, with truffled mushroom bread pudding and winter greens ($36).  Wine enthusiasts will appreciate The Beat’s acclaimed wine list featuring 32 American artisanal wines on tap and an acclaimed reserve list. Signature concoctions to imbibe include the Plimoth Daiquiri made with Privateer White rum, Barrow’s ginger liqueur and pumpkin spiced simple syrup ($12) and the Smokey The Bear made with Old Overholt, Amere Nouvelle, Vya Sweet Vermouth and Balcones Brimstone Whisky ($13).
