Nels Cline soundwaves are always appreciated by my psyche.

sounds like morton feldman

why??

Masterful and mesmerizing!! A talented, imposing first-rank musical duo roaming the fields of free jazz improvisation.

Great. More from this Concert

I just heard some of this album on NPR, and while I was a bass player and now play some guitar, i can't listen to music like this, and I don't know how anyone can't. Is it "free jazz" because when it's all full of discordant dissonance, with everyone deliberately sounding like 5 year olds banging on trash can lids. It like you guys purposely don't want anyone to play along with you. But i also realize that this music needs to exist so that some people can feel superior by saying that other just "don't get it" but in reality, there are no pleasant melodies, chord movements or even simple rhythms that fit. This is what "Take Five" is such a classic, it's because they were playing TOGETHER! This is not avant garde or something new and GOOD, it's just musically masturbation that nobody outside of the band needs to be subjected to.

Such a great performance

This is very, very cool...

Nasty

Thank you ❤

once a week KZbin recommends something EXTRAORDINARY! Thank you, I shall investigate more into your wonderful music!!!

amazing sounds! Love from Brasil!

Creative.

Amazing👾

This is why I play.

Well, done, Kris ! I remember this composition from "The Complete Genius" sides, on Blue Note. I spent many hours transcribing some of these pieces, using Monk and Steve Lacy LPs. Best, James

The Diatom Ribbons are one of those rare masterworks - Kris is a serious force in contemporary music!

Great stuff. I just listened to your playing on Terri Lyne Carrington's The New Standards. You played some great Post Bop there, but this is really on the more on the eclectic Modern Creative/Avant Garder side (pardon my labelling i just have no words to describe what I just heard). Gonna definitely look for the album. And what an ensemble cast/personnel. Cheers from Brazil, stay safe.

amazing! the description should have a link to the official site, or bandcamp :)

This is wonderful! Thank you.

Sounds like gamelan

GREAT!

pure magic <3

i want to listen tims alto solo. either tim or john zorn are cool

two masters!

I wonder how high she was?

Thank you. So beautiful. It amplifies the beauty of the music and its pairing with Gwendolin Brooks' poetry.

Thank you. Wonderful, as the record is.

its a great album!!!!

I just heard Kris' interview on CBC Q with Tom Power. I needed to listen to the music - and it's brilliant.

Very different and very very good .proves jazz is advancing like no other genre.

Here after a seeing the NPR jazz critics poll results.

holy crap, that voice!! beautiful arrangement. it almost sounds as though it was written for her voice.

Thats quite a line up! Fantastic

very cool! sounds great

Awesome song and video! Love Esperanza and this composition! Hope to hear more music like this from Kris Davis and Esperanza

Wonderful!
