Saturday night at Vision was a highlight of the festival which started with a explosive set of dance and music led by Vision Festival organiser and dancer Patricia Nicholson's Celestial Moon Beams funk which took a simple funk groove and dispersed it with free passages performed by the band and the dancers.
Matthew Shipp Trio continued the evening with a dynamic performance twisting between deconstructed standards and free improvisation.
Paul Dunmall represented the British scene with a virtuosic performance, creating fascinating musical conversation with Grimes on bass and violin.
George Lewis and Joelle Leandre created a sound scape of trombone and double bass with their duo which was a playful and esoteric conversation of avantjazz.
