Drummer Tomas Fujiwara, one of the anchors of New York's rising modern jazz scene, pulls double duty for Ars Nova Workshop's final show of 2010. He'll appear first as part of Ideal Bread, baritone saxophonist Josh Sinton's inventive exploration of the repertory of soprano great Steve Lacy. He'll then take the lead of his own quintet, The Hook Up, which features frequent collaborator Mary Halvorson on guitar. They evoke a rock band in their concision, momentum and focus without co-opting explicit "rock" sounds.
