This is a song from Immanuel's Blues Blood Black Future. You can find a full live stream of the entire suite from a number of years ago on Roulette Intermedium's RUclips page. Highly recommend, its an experience. It's based on the story of Daniel Hamm who was apart of the Harlem Six. As far as the cooking goes: in the July issue of DOWNBEAT Magazine, Immanuel answered in an interview:. "I think having someone cooking on the bandstand provides a certain level of abstraction to a piece where it's kind of blurred in terms of what the actually narrative is or what the representation is supposed to be. That's the beauty of abstraction. And I think that's something I'm gravitating toward, just abstraction on general right now, especially in terms of performance." A studio album of the suite is coming out soon too.
not why she was cooking, what she was cooking (Gumbo), the history of the dish, having its birthplace in New Orleans, in tandem with a lot of black art-a sort of Mecca in America, also being the birthplace of jazz through genres such as ragtime among others-> that’s why she’s up there. To pay respects and reference black history, creativity and evolution of art
Too bad that the recording is so bad. As in many live takes there's almost no piano or bass audible so the context of the sax lines are obscured. Even so after Brecker and Coltrane I don't hear any "boundary pushing" here.
Maybe you've let your ears get too old to hear the new sonic frontiers? Because his vocabulary shares practically nothing with Brecker/Trane nor the dialogue and context they used.
you must lack any sense to think Immanuel’s playing isn’t boundary pushing. you won’t find new sonic frontiers if you refuse to open your mind to newer playing
@@ThomasGilmore-fi6gb i have none that’s why i’m not criticizing this player that is obviously better and more well made than both of us by miles- moreso, making a contribution to the future of jazz and exploring these “new sonic frontiers” you’re so concerned with instead of lingering in the past.
Him showing up looking like a jackass with a winter hood on stopped the show for me. As long as the guy needs a costume to impress anyone his musical credibility disappears.
@@ThomasGilmore-fi6gb imagine worrying about what another performer wears while playing on stage, he’s pushing boundaries musically while you have to comment on something that has no bearing on his skill, projection at its finest
obviously Sun Ra, The Art Ensemble of Chicago, Miles Davis, MFDOOM (just to name a few)have influenced fashion specifically within instrumental Black American Music. It wouldn’t be surprising to see modern artist such as Thundercat, Deadmau5, etc to be expressing themselves thru the fashion medium. Drip or drown.
This is Very Nice. All of It! Vocals Set It All Up and end it. Sax! Incredible. Shows respect for voice AND instrument!
These people CAPTURE IT! Incredible!!

Super!

@@src9691 Maybe you should explain to me specifically, in musical terms, exactly what the "new sonic frontiers" are. I'm happy to learn.

@@joshuaquddus1 I've performed jazz professionally over 3 continents since 1994. What are your critical credentials?

Womp womp
Such a shame it have this effect on you. It should be about sound, nothing else, nothing more. Hoodies and so are for fun (or confort; who care ?).
Comfort in a fleece lined hood indoors and under stage lights... no way that it could be an attention getting device.
