SONNY ROLLINS & DON CHERRY:
The unlikely partnership between be-bop tenor saxophonist and avant-garde
trumpeter Don Cherry gave us some of the most adventurous soloing that
Rollins has ever recorded, and some of the most lyrical trumpet we ever heard
from Don Cherry, both tackling songs not normally in their repertoire.
We’ll sample their recordings from July 1962, January 1963 and February 1963.
We’ll also give you a taste of the upcoming concert by Marcus Printup, Ted Nash,
John Geggie & Ted Warren at the NAC Fourth Stage on October 18.
