New Freedom

David Ornette Cherry

A
looser freer
form
with more latitude
for
improvisation
intuition and forays
to the
outside of jazz
familiar
boundaries
for
extended creativeness

Silvia

complex
unconventional
compositions
express
the innermost
feeling
can
be moody
contemplative
chaotic
with no or few rules

Andre St. James

  it
liberates players
from
traditional structures
such as
melodic themes

Michael York
 
horn players
intentionally
over blow
to produce unusual sounds
moans
shrieks and cries…
it's jazz
stretched
to its ultimate limits
an exploration

 David Ornette Cherry

people
tilt their heads
with stares
of
puzzlement
