New! Reissued!
The Black Panther Suite
DVD
$20 for DVD
"Nine years in the making...a revolution in its fusion of historical artistry. In its unique treatment of one of the most controversial, dangerously challenging political movements in American history, the work represented here will undoubtedly age as a premiere document in understanding our legacy of racial turbulence...
Fred Ho's music and the stunning video artistry of Paul Chan make for a historical anecdote that is both soulful and revelatory. His Afro-Asian Music Ensemble is a dynamic force, a powder keg of moving incendiary fury. For both culturists and free-form jazz fans, this is a must have." Erik Mertz

Red Arc:
A call for revolucion
con salsa y cool
Poetry by raúlrsalinas
Baritone sax by Fred Ho
$15 for CD
A magician and a conjurer, one night in a recording studio, the poet raálrsalinas and the saxophonist Fred Ho expanded the tradition of Kerouac, the Beats, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, and The Last Poets. Hail! Hail! Hail!
What we have here is a poetic fusion that defies categorization: It is Zen, but it is angry; it is Chicano, but its rhythms are those of Charlie Parker and Thelonius Monk; it is regional in its setting and imagery, hemispheric in its vision. In short, it is raálrsalinas - one long enjambed bop calling for liberacio'n con salsa y cool.

"Politics proud and defiant...an uncompromising stance bursts out of every track...with up-front energy and immediate impact."-BBC Music Magazine (England)
"Composer-arranger Fred Ho could teach Wynton Marsalis a thing or two about making social statements through music...While Marsalis...is dry, academic treatise...[Ho's music] is a stirring outpouring of intense emotion...vibrant, vital and passionate."-Perry Gettelman, The Orlando Sentinel |
