Description

John Rockwell, Midnight Opera Group Experiments with Jazz, New York Times (April 1973)

In this short article the New York Times critic John Rockwell reviews a performance by the Midnight Opera Company held at the Kitchen. He describes the group as an experimental jazz ensemble with sounds that "alternate between practiced but routine new-jazz bursts of energy and more set, simple, classically oriented segments making use of the augmented musical forces."
