Last night to celebrate quatro de mayo, we got together to record a few tunes by Ornette Coleman. This is the newest form of our Ornette Coleman project called “So Roam, Child” consisting of Preston Smith(Bass), Ben Williams(Drums), and me(Piano). We had never played or rehearsed the tunes with Ben before pushing record, but we have all been fans of Ornette’s music for a while and drew from our common knowledge of his melodies and philosophy. All of these recordings were obviously done in one take as you can’t rehearse this kind of music. It just happens. We used three mics and recorded at my house. Enjoy!
This first track is called “Congeniality” and is from The Shape of Jazz to Come
