Anthony Braxton
Born:
To his list of achievements and awards, Anthony Braxton may now add the 1994 MacArthur Fellowship: the so-called "genius" grant of (in his case) $300,000, awarded to individuals nominated for outstanding and original contributions to their field. The timing of this crowning achievement couldn't be better for Braxton's most recent professional goals: he is the founding Artistic Director of the newly incorporated Tri-Centric Foundation, Inc., a New York-based not-for-profit corporation including an ensemble of some 38 musicians, four to eight vocalists, and computer-graphic video artists assembled to perform his compositions.

by Glenn Astarita
Roy Powell has been the quiet man in the engine room for years. British by birth and Norwegian by choice, he once spent serious time as Anthony Braxton's pianist on those wild European tours where the music looked like geometry homework, and the applause was optional. He later slipped into the electric Norwegian wave, trading greasy ...

Dopo l'esperienza con gli Aktuala, sul finire degli anni Settanta ha iniziato a intrecciare la sua strada con quella di Tiziano Tononi, dal ché è nato poco dopo Nexus, e di lì tutta una storia comune in cui ognuno ha messo del suo. Del resto, ...
