Zwei Neuheiten von Cecil Taylor – die CD auf Discus kam schon im Herbst heraus, ging völlig an mir vorbei:
CECIL TAYLOR & TONY OXLEY – BEING ASTRAL (DISCUS106CD, 2020)
A beautifully recorded live performance from 2002 at the Ulrichsberg Festival. Issued from the personal archive of, and supervised by, Tony Oxley.
“The musical synergy between Taylor and Oxley is one of the most natural and artistically fulfilling manifestations of the „Art of the Duo“ idiom. After all these two musicians share many common qualities: they are revolutionaries, pioneers, visionaries and free spirits, who expanded the realms of music perhaps more significantly than is commonly acknowledged.” – Adam Baruch, Jazz In Britain
Cecil Taylor – piano
Tony Oxley – drums
