Karen Borca, Wadada Leo Smith & Amina Claudine Myers, & Albert Beger

Click the play button to listen

This episode finds itself in a lot of different nooks and crannies of creative improvised music; there's the bassoon of Karen Borca, often considered the pioneer of that instrument in jazz, on a never-heard-before album, there's meditative yet free collaboration between two long time friends and members the AACM, trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith and pianist Amina Claudine Myers, Dave King's Happy Apple's return to recording, the sympatico duo of clarinetist Francois Houle and pianist Benoit Delbecq, the power of the Israeli quartet led by veteran saxophonist Albert Beger, the mystery of the Portuguese trio Linae, and the debut of New York's 577 Records label's partners as a trio (Daniel Carter, Matthew Putnam & Federico Ughi). And that's just the new albums! There's lots more great music. Enjoy.
