Screening of Fred Ho's Last Year
When faced with widespread cancer and imminent death, what is an ardent non-conformist, unconventional, uncontrollable, avant-garde, experimental composer, bandleader, baritone saxophonist, writer and activist supposed to do?
Become a warrior against said cancer of course and set out, in his “final” year, to share and teach his life’s work while continuing to write books and compose and stage new works.
Fred Ho is this warrior.
Purveyor of what he calls Afro-Asian New American Multicultural music, Ho is a dynamo and true independent.
His nearly undefineable music is an amalgam of Pan Asian, soul and what is generally considered jazz (a term Ho prefers not to use due to what he calls its derogatory genesis).
His philosophical leanings are progressive and revolutionary.
His fashion sense is equally idiosyncratic.
In the last five years or so, Ho has suffered through various bouts of cancer leaving his insides in disarray but making his purpose even more focused and profound.
