A lot of things were happening simultaneously at the newly renovated David Geffen Hall Saturday evening for the multimedia performance of “San Juan Hill: A New York Story,” featuring trumpeter/percussionist Etienne Charles’ composition.
Like the music, the hall is a dazzling edifice, replete with five or six tiers of balconies, a 50-foot wide digital screen, a spacious welcome center, and enough toilets to accommodate the more than 2,200 attendees.
One of the most engrossing moments occurred when the screen was emblazoned with the words “Riot 1905,” and there was a wee bit of cacophony in Charles’ music, replicating the bedlam but it was nonetheless a sonorous evocation. Further along in San Juan Hill’s development that got its name from the Spanish American War, there were elements of bebop that to some extent signified such former residents there as Thelonious Monk and Bud Powell.
