Resonance is an immersive solo bass performance that explores the legacy of Eberhard Weber through improvisation, innovation, and the use of modern looping and processing technologies. The program bridges the worlds of jazz, experimental, and electro-acoustic music, drawing listeners into evolving soundscapes that balance structure and spontaneity.

Over the course of the performance, audiences experience a dialogue between tradition and innovation—a re-imagining of Weber’s influence alongside Jair-Rohm’s own improvisational voice, honed over five decades of creative music-making. This is music that is both deeply personal and universally resonant.

Jair-Rohm Parker Wells is a bassist, composer, and sound artist with over fifty years of international experience. A pioneer of electro-acoustic and improvisational bass, he has collaborated with artists such as Reeves Gabrels (David Bowie, The Cure), Jonathan Kane (Swans), Eugene Chadbourne, and Elliott Sharp. He is a founding member of the trios Ripplewood, Dead Solstice, FlowSonic, and Gabrels, Kane, Parker Wells, and has released numerous recordings across genres from free improvisation to contemporary composition.

His solo work integrates looping, extended techniques, and electronics to push the boundaries of the bass as a solo instrument.

“A meditative journey that feels both timeless and urgent.” – Gina Renzi, The Rotunda
“Jair-Rohm creates entire worlds with his instrument.” – Mark Forman, audience member
“All of the pieces performed fit the bill for satisfying the audience, and as evidenced by the people who stayed after the show to converse with him—they all wanted more!” – Elizabeth Millar, All About Jazz
“ Jair-Rohm Parker Wells has been one of my bass heroes ever since I saw him play Zappanale #19 in 2008. His range is awesome…” – Ben Watson, The Wire
