The Award Winning Feature Documentary Film "ELECTRIC HEART" will Premiere in Austin as part of Music Monday on November 30, 9:45PM - Alamo Downtown Drafthouse Theater.
This is the long-awaited story of Don Ellis whom play music without boundries and crossed over to new paths never before and since done. Its the story of a man that played music from a creative end and not a commercial one. Its the story of a stone sober musician that was doomed with a heart problem so he attempted to take Jazz to new heights and never looked back. Tesimonials from Gunther Schuller, Maynard Ferguson, Stan Kenton and Milcho Leviev play out the Filmmaker's conclusion that Ellis (1934-1978) was one of the single most talented and influencial Jazz Artists of his day and also conclude the mysteries of why his music has somehow been forgotten.
