Description
New releases of astonishing music in our latest podcast! Wadada Leo Smith approaches 80 with a new box set featuring Bill Laswell & the late Milford Graves. John Luther Adams & Pierre Henry revisit the classics of their younger years. John Zorn’s Bagatelles get their first recording, as does Thomas Dausgaard’s Brandenburg Project, represented by Olga Neuwirth’s witty companion piece to Bach’s #4.
Nate Wooley’s octet album explores the junctions of composition and improvisation, while Błoto, Norm Chambers, Chloe Yu Nong Lin & the LA Electroacoustic Ensemble extend the traditions of electronic music, musique concrète & avant-rock, all of which we’ll tie back to Pierre Henry in our closing set. Creative and improvised music with host Mike Schell.
