A piano played as if it were an orchestra of drums.
Cecil Percival Taylor (1929-2018) spent six decades proving that freedom in music requires discipline. Philip Freeman traces the pianist, composer and poet from Corona, Queens, through the New England Conservatory, the Five Spot Café and the 1962 Copenhagen sessions with Sunny Murray and Albert Ayler, to the Blue Note recordings Unit Structures and Conquistador!, the teaching years at Wisconsin and Antioch, the Berlin residency of 1988 on In Berlin '88, and the 2016 retrospective Open Plan: Cecil Taylor at the Whitney.
Freeman draws on interviews with Taylor and his collaborators, among them Jimmy Lyons, William Parker and Tony Oxley, and shows how letters, cells and oral scores replaced notation. Markus Müller opens the volume with an account of Free Music Production and Taylor's European reception.
A biography that takes the work seriously - attentive to the music, the labour behind it and the resistance it met.
