Joe Morris: Beautiful Existence and Rob Brown: Radiant Pools

by Clifford Allen
Improvised music is based on conviction, the belief in the rightness of what one is playing, a sort of forward-moving directive of sound hinging in part on the ability of one's work to stand equally with the entire history of music (to paraphrase art critic Michael Fried). But improvisation, though certainly a defining action, is also ...
