Muhal Richard Abrams – Spiral: Live At Montreux 1978

Only 1 left in stock

$8.00

“Muhal Richard Abrams performs unaccompanied throughout this concert appearance from the 1978 Montreux Jazz Festival. The relatively brief “String Song” features some odd sound explorations as Abrams plays the strings from inside the piano along with gongs. “D Song” and “Voice Song” find Abrams sticking to the piano and offering a slightly mellower alternative to Cecil Taylor in exploring new music. Abrams’ occasional use of devices from earlier styles (including a bit of dissonant stride and basslines à la Lennie Tristano) makes this music a bit more accessible than one might expect at times, but in general, this set is for listeners who enjoy hearing new approaches to musical freedom.” – allmusic.com
