A nice selection. The Don Ellis piece is really interesting. He seems to have beaten Anthony Braxton to the punch on numerical titles!
ReplyDeleteHis means of notating the grouping of the 19/4 time signature of the piece. Lacks the Prince Rogers Nelson-inspiring difficult-to-describe diagrams of Braxton at his most abstruse, and not quite as hard to announce.... Thanks, Jim, not least for reminding me of Ellis's early work.
