In addition, she has been active in improving the working conditions for musicians and contributing towards a vital jazz milieu. In 1994 she celebrated 30 years since her first released LP as a solo artist.

Read "Ornette Coleman's and Horace Silver's "Lonely Woman" — A Disambiguation" reviewed by Artur Moral

by Artur Moral

Reality is filled with confusion and misunderstandings; some are suggestive or creative, while others are disappointing or, worse, malicious.
