Featuring clarinet, organ and Middle Eastern Percussion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bedlam & Eunoia:<\/strong>
Genre-bending jazz mixed with world music, odd meters, classical, and film score influence. Ranging from the tender to the fervorous; intimate, emotional music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Formed in April 2017, the group draws on Michael Beling<\/strong>\u2019s unique compositional style, jazz training, and ability to play pedal bass and piano simultaneously, paired with Eric LaPerna<\/strong>\u2019s extensive knowledge of Middle Eastern percussion, and Barry Saunders<\/strong>\u2019s serious jazz and classical experience on clarinet and saxophone. The musicians demonstrate a highly symbiotic and sensitive rapport, and their history and ease of playing together is readily apparent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
