Painted Bride Art Center proudly presents Big Ears, an ambitious residency program that brings together New York-based drummer/composer John Hollenbeck with a dozen Philadelphia jazz musicians. A call to artists, followed by a rigorous selection process, has yielded a group of local artists that transects age, gender, ethnicity, and musical heritage. The program concludes on March 6 with the premiere of new music that Hollenbeck has composed for the group.

Discover the process behind Big Ears at BigEarsPhilly.com, where you can watch video interviews with all of the musicians, read their blog posts, listen to audio samples, and submit your own comments.
