Teil 2 des Gastbeitrages von Henning Bolte zum Tode von Ornette Coleman
Ornette, he has gone. He changed our way of listening …
“I have always wanted to have more rhythm. Rhythm doesn’t have any parents and doesn’t have a style either. It just changes everything that touches it equally. You can’t dominate rhythm. Some call it the upbeat or the downbeat, but you either have to find a way to relate to it or let it pass.”
from Ornette’s conversation with WAX POETICS’ John Kruth to read H E R E
Ornette ist es stets gelungen, so über Klang und Musik zu reden, dass letztere nicht festnagelbar waren!
It’s quite strange that the German obituaries don’t mention or deal with Ornette’s work with Joachim Kühn … Reasons?
