HENRY THREADGILL - THE OTHER ONE

  • henry threadgill ensemble: the other one
        (2023, cd, --, pi recordings)
"The Other One", the latest from Henry Threadgill, is the musical component of a large multimedia work performed and recorded live at Roulette Intermedium in Brooklyn, New York in 2022. The recording is comprised of a three-movement composition entitled “Of Valence,” which was inspired by the percussionist and theorist Milford Graves, in particular, his integration of the human heartbeat into his musical works, and is performed by a 12-piece ensemble.

One might call this contemporary jazz, or even contemporary classical music but the fact is that "The Other One" will give you an adventurous and challenging listening session.
