In my opinion one of the most intriguing proposal of the last years: new open composing technique, wide open ears and great interplay. This is a possible way of playin contemporary jazz with freshness and good ideas.

In the Taylor Ho Bynum website You can also find some images, a discography and other useful informations. In the website of the Firehouse12 Music Audio Bar, in Brooklin , the Ho Bynum own discographycal label, other interesting infos and a preview of an almost new and possible way of living in the music business today without givin' up to the artistical and intellectual belief.

Thanks, LYM. I've really enjoyed Bynum's other sextet record, as well as the duo w/ Fujiwara. And anything with Mary Halvorson is worth hearing, says I.

Not sure what you mean about the interview, though. Is that part of the broadcast? (I haven't listened yet.)

Thanks to all for the appreciation!

@1009 and anyone interested.
Yes the first track is a THB short interview. I'd like to post that interview here and eventually translate itin my own language since English is not the one, so if there's someone else interested a little help would be greatly appreciated!

@all
to my ears this group is a very very fine one as all the THB records I've heard (just a little till now). Even Mary Halvorson’s first trio cd [Dragon's Head - Firehouse12] is a joy to hear!
Here on IncSol there is a marvellous concert recorded in Rome 2008 of the Anthony Braxton DCWT with Bynum and Halvorson: astonishing music and interplay! In my opinion one of the best Braxton by years! Listen to the Victoriaville concert too by the same ensemble.

In the same days I've discovered and listened to another fine and very excityng musician named Darren Johnston. Until a few days ago it was totally unknown but it deserved great attention and repeated listening, Unluckily no unofficial or radio broadcasting to my knowledge. Anyway two listen marvellosus records I know are: Johnston, Ochs, Frith, Hoff, Smith - (2007) Reasons for Moving [Not Two] and Darren Johnston - (2007) The Edge of the Forest [Clean Feed].
Here the link to his website: [http://www.darrenjohnstonmusic.com/]

ENJOY THE MUSIC! :- LYM

Thank you very much for this offering, and a belated thank-you for the many things I have borrowed from your blog, from its past and present members, over the last year. I hope this belated acknowledgement will (begin) to redress my karmic debt.

I am amazed at what Braxton and his students have been doing in the new millenium, and am pretty much down with anything involving Taylor Ho Bynum, Jessica Pavone and Mary Halvorson. What an opportune moment for the Mosaic Arista Braxton set to come out at last --- for I believe that this decade will be looked on by posterity as fully the equal of Braxton's PREVIOUS great decade, the seventies. Really, he has not been on a roll like this for some time now.

Regarding this particular performance: the Taylor Ho Bynum Sextet is one of the finest group of improvising composers on the planet at the moment, and this live performance is wilder, looser, yet even more premeditated than the studio CDs on which some of the material first appeared. Thank you very much for continuing to document The Music.

Having trouble downloading part3: MF says that file name is invalid. Can this be corrected? Can't wait to hear this great group. Thanks. Rob
