Avant-garde - Intensive - Innovative
Cecil Taylor
Cecil Taylor was an American pianist and poet, known as a pioneer of the free jazz genre. His playing style is unmistakable, characterized by intense energy, complexity and a bold exploration of the piano's possibilities. Taylor's music is characterized by its frenetic tempo, innovative tone clusters and a strong improvisational sense, often resulting in works that are as much sonic explorations as musical compositions. With his unorthodox approach and dedication to musical innovation, Cecil Taylor is a cult figure among jazz connoisseurs and a beloved artist for visitors to Djungel & Jazz, the premier destination for avant-garde jazz vinyl in Stockholm.
