- Historic archival footage, October 5th 1991, at Carroll Studios in NYC. Ornette Coleman interviewed by Lawrence Sobol on Alan Hovhaness and Miles Davis.
Interview took place during rehearsals for Alan Hovhaness’s 80th birthday celebration at Carnegie Hall. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Ornette had such an open heart. Combined with being a master of his instrument and a composer... His greatness only grows with the years
"It's very hard to be in the present"!
I attended the Creative Music Studio which was founded by Ornette. He was so kind to found a place to where up and come players could be developed, nurtured to artistic maturity. Thanks
Ornette still doesn't get the respect he deserves.
His music is so deep both emotionally and intellectually.
What are your very favorite tracks by Ornette? The ones you listen to most?
Shape of jazz to come. The whole record is 🔥 fantastic.
The albums science Fiction and
Love Cry
TOTALLY disagree. His place in music history is fully documented now, as shown by over five hardcover biographies that have been published, articles in magazines, liner notes, comments by fellow musicians. He is practically universally respected in Jazz music.
look at his eyes!
I could watch them for ever!
As deep as the ocean!
He said one thing that struck me. That Miles Davis was able to be who he was due to a certain freedom afforded by our society. Like a lot of great musicians he was most relevant when his philisophy hovered around his art.
What a beautiful man
still love it!!
Genius
Nice.
İf you want to be really useful try putting subtitles to this.
It would be highly appreciated if someone could transcribe the last bit of the interview, specially what he says at 8.30. I am missing something: "there is actually no styles of music, there is..... music".
'only classes of music, once those classes realize they're holding each other back, then the thing that we call music will become more of what it should be used for' is what i'm hearing.
Makes sense. Thanks, Stash.
@@rdrgplnz If that makes sense to you - could you explain it to me? "The thing we call music will become more of what it should be used for..."
Sounds like Irwin Corey - "I feel more like I do now".
@@alainjames9556 I think he meant it more in the overall sense of what music is really for. The word music comes from the word muse which is really about providing the material and function of amusing and inspiring the listener or observing audience.
@@connshawnery6489 In my experience, people make music because they have to - because they love to - not for any purpose. For decades, people have tried to make sense out of something that Ornette says - because, as he expressed it, nobody really knows what in the world he is talking about. Here's another example: He praised his trumpet player, Don Cherry, saying that he, Cherry, "keeps his playing in his vivid image". Figure that one out...
