The Art of the Improvisers

sat 22 oct 2022 23:00 hour

The second part of the series on US pianist and composer Geri Allen (1957-2017)

She belonged to the generation of jazz musicians in New York that gave new rhythmic impulses in the 1980s and 1990s, including through the informal M-Base Collective she was part of. After that, she became one of the figureheads of contemporary jazz.

In this episode, recordings from 1984 to ’86.
