A musical serial. Episode 15: In A Silent Way
The last episode, for now, on Miles Davis most atmospheric time period. We can’t leave without playing In A Silent Way. This LP was built by recording improvisations around a simple theme, and having producer Theo Macero stitch it together to a coherent whole afterwords. Between the In A Silent Way pieces we play Ascent, which is not featured on the original LP, but was recorded during the same sessions.
