On Saturday, February 18, 2006 at 8:30 PM, trumpeter/composer Dave Douglas will present the New York City multi-media premiere of the Grammy-nominated project, Keystone, original music set to films of early 20th century silent film legend, Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle, one of America’s earliest and most-ingenious movie stars. The compositions on the Keystone CD/DVD were originally commissioned by The Paramount Center for the Performing Arts in Peekskill, NY (with a National Endowment for the Arts Commissioning Grant). Dave Douglas will be appearing at Zankel Hall with Marcus Strickland (tenor saxophone), Adam Benjamin (Fender Rhodes), Brad Jones (bass), Gene Lake (drums), DJ Olive (turntables); collectively known as Keystone. Press enquiries should be directed to Jason Byrne at Red Cat Publicity.

The New York City premiere of Keystone is part of In Your Ear Too (a weekend festival curated by John Adams), and the international multi-media tour in support and celebration of the CD/DVD release on Greenleaf Music; the follow up recording to the much praised Mountain Passages, and Douglas’ encomium to the unjustly maligned Arbuckle.

Tickets for the New York City premier of Keystone at Zankel Hall on February 18 are $27-$32, and can be purchased online at www.carnegiehall.org. Showtime is 8:30 PM
