Duo (Heidelberg Loppem) 2007

Anthony Braxton | Joëlle Léandre

 

 

 

This is the meeting of two giants of improvised music that music lovers have been waiting for for a long time. The double CD documents this meeting in its entirety. Anthony Braxton played sopranino, soprano and alto saxes, and contra-bass clarinet. One can write volumes about this meeting, yet two words would be sufficient to describe what happened in that Heidelberg Cafe on March 17, 2007 – pure magic. Extensive notes by Stuart Broomer.
