Prior to a local engagement
in Lexington, Kentucky, iconoclastic European free jazz saxophonist Peter
Brt?zman discusses his intensely revolutionary Chicago Tentet, featuring
ten of the world's finest free jazz musicians in an all-out jazz assault.
Peter?Brt?zman tells Chris Comer why the Chicago Tentet got together in
the first place, the concept behind it and why it's one of the most satisfying
ensembles of his career. Chris asks Peter to elaborate on The Chicago
Tentet's place in the tradition of the large ensemble in jazz. Peter describes
'graphic scores' and how they are played, and what he'd say to a jazz
fan who 'just doesn't get' his music. Towards the end of the interview
Chris engages Mr.?Br?tzman on his early influences - Peter saw Sidney
Bechet once!?
