Lineage

I was performing my visual music at the International Society for Improvised Music conference a couple of weeks ago at Augsburg University Minneapolis. There I met the amazing young Swiss classical and free improvising pianist Raphael Sudan who gave me his 2014 album "Bach, Schubert, Liszt". Raphael grew up in a musical family and was proud to have studied with Brazilian pianist Luiz de Moura-Castro, who graduated from the Liszt Academy in Budapest, founded in Franz Liszt's home. "That's how close I got (to Liszt)" he said.

It just made me think of the importance to music of lineage and this Forum - and all the people here who connected in some way to George Russell.

Bob,
I just picked up the incredible new Wes Montgomery CD release on the Resonance label: https://resonancerecords.org/shop/wes-m ... ecordings/

There are two tracks featuring George Russell alums, David Baker, and David Young, playing with Wes. Great stuff!

Hi Sandy,

I know what you mean. That sounds like an amazing double-album. Resonance is a great label and Zev Feldman is really tuned in to lineage. I was listening to a track from their Coltrane date Offering Live at Temple University - like a second coming of A Love Supreme!

Oh man..I just watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZQAwahDL8A

I'm going to see if it's on HDtracks.com. Zev is a saint and nice cat.
