Fórum Organissimo

A closer inspection of the lineup reveals a lot more. Amina Claudine Myers will appear on organ and piano with a trio of Jerome Harris and Reggie Nicholson. William Parker appears in five concerts: With Mayan Space Station, Seraphic Light, black Cherry, Heart Trio and Raining on the Moon. Vijay Iyer appears in three concerts, including a quartet with Adam O'Farrill, Linda Oh and Tyshawn Sorey and a jazz/Indian classical fusion project with sarod and tabla. Bill Frisell appears in two concerts and plays live music with two Buster Keaton films. A string quartet performs Julius Hemphill compositions. Melvin Gibbs appears in four concerts, including Zigzag Power Trio with Vernon Reid. SML returns.

I think it is his compositions and arrangements. Although a few of them sound pretty familiar. He really would have done better to release 1/10 of the material and to have spent more time on it.

I don't understand why Zorn's name is on this as a leader though. i can see when there's an orchestra, like Maria Schneider's releases, but this is a sextet. Doesn't seem like Zorn's a "conductor" as much as he is simply the producer.

The Leaders - Out Here Like This... 1988 Arthur Blythe with Lester Bowie, Chico Freeman, Cecil Mcbee, Don Moye, Kirk Lightsey

Naked City – Live Volume 1: Knitting Factory 1989 This one is pretty great. I had avoided it because I assumed it was the band with Yamatsuka Eye but actually it is a live performance from before the initial record came out: the same songs from the 1990 album and no stupid fake grindcore vocalising. Nice to hear these tunes executed in a live setting.
