Improv Spaces is presenting a very special pairing of performances on Wednesday, November 18 from 7–9pm at Saratoga Arts, featuring New York artists Leo Chang performing a solo set and a trio of Eli Wallace, Joe Moffett, and Michael Foster.

We are delighted to welcome back Eli Wallace and Joe Moffett, whom we have previously presented in separate Improv Spaces programs. This time they will be joined by Michael Foster, performing material from their recent album Disquiet.

Michael Foster is a NYC-based saxophonist, improviser, composer, and curator. His work as both a performer and curator is focused on the intersection of improvisation and queer identity and its implications across myriad forms of performance practice.

Joe Moffett is a trumpeter and improviser based in New York. He approaches his work with an interest in unconventional sounds and forms and the integration of improvisation and collective composition into a musical praxis.

Eli Wallace is a pianist, improviser, and composer who resides in Brooklyn, NY, where he develops his own projects and collaborates with like-minded artists. His work as a pianist displays a proclivity for non-idiomatic free improvisation, incorporating vast and elaborate piano preparations that John Lewis (The Guardian) describes as “…pushing the boundaries of the prepared piano.”

Leo Chang is a Korean-born, Queens-based experimental musician, improviser, composer, and sound artist. Informed by his transient lived experience, Leo plays with sounds, instruments, forms, and social practices outside of their original contexts. He does so using electronic audio processing and sound design, performance, individual and group improvisation, graphical notation, and text scores. Leo is also a 2026–2028 Princeton Arts Fellow, 2026 NYSCA/NYFA Artist Fellow, 2023–25 Commissioned and Resident Artist at Roulette Intermedium, and 2024 Center for Performance Research Artist-in-Residence, and has received grants from the Korea Foundation, NYFA Queens Arts Fund, and Brooklyn Arts Council.
