On Q Productions presents "Miles & Coltrane: Blue (.)"   ONE NIGHT ONLY Get tickets @  www .carolinatix.org  $20 Group rates available for 10 or more.   Miles & Coltrane: Blue (.) is a project that was started in 2005. It was first a conversation between Corey McClure and Q, on how Miles and Coltrane have influenced American music, especially jazz. It then turned into a choreopoem, with the writings of Concrete Generation (Norris Guest, Carlos Robson, c.p.maze, Filmore Johnson, Bluz, Mekkah, Ocean, and Tavis Brunson) experiencing the stories of these men's lives, through poetry, prose, and dialogue.      Once the script was edited, we needed a Miles and Coltrane. So Sultan "Omar" El-min signed on to play Miles, and Q plays Coltrane.  Then we added in the talents of the amazing dancers Randolph Ward (Miles) and Jhe Russell (Coltrane) from NC Dance Theater, who interpret their experiences through movement. Therefore music was needed, and the Jazzyphat Five piece band was formed headed by Stephen Gordon.  The collaboration is rounded out with the art work of God City Collective. These talented group of artists have come together to present a show like non-other. Just like the music, the show can't really be explained, like the music you just have to listen, and in this instance, come see, Miles & Coltrane: Blue (.)
