ANTHONY BRAXTON | MARILYN CRISPELL – Duets : Vancouver • 1989 "Four Compositions By Anthony Braxton (1990) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

For this duet set with pianist Marilyn Crispell from the 1989 Vancouver Jazz Festival, Anthony Braxton (who plays alto and flute) performs six of his complex originals. The music is a mixture of composition and improvisation (it is often difficult to know which is which). Although it will not win any new converts who are put off by the complexity of Braxton's music, repeated listenings to these dynamic performances will result in listeners gain in better understanding and appreciating these masterful musicians.
