Avant-garde Pioneer - Spontaneity - Free jazz
Ornette Coleman
Ornette Coleman, the iconic alto saxophonist and pioneering composer, creates music that challenges convention and explores the limits of improvisation. His alto saxophone playing is like a free-flowing conversation where the notes flow outside the traditional framework. Coleman introduced the term "free jazz" and his music is like a journey of discovery where every note carries a sense of spontaneity and musical adventure. Listening to a vinyl record with Ornette Coleman is like embarking on a journey through avant-garde jazz's most experimental and innovative moments.
