David Murray Interview for "REED RAPTURE IN BROOKLYN"

REED RAPTURE IN BROOKLYN is a 12 CD box set from Mahakala Music.
REED RAPTURE IN BROOKLYN is also a full length feature film by the multiple prize winning filmmaker DON McGLYNN who served as Director and Producer.
It features such widely renown internationally admired musicians as DAVID LIEBMAN, VINNY GOLIA, DAVID MURRAY, JOE LOVANO, JON IRABAGON, JOE McPHEE, JAMES CARTER, TIM BERNE, ROSCOE MITCHELL, LOTTE ANKER, KEN VANDERMARK, COLIN STETSON.
It is a reed summit and these musicians play nearly all of the many different reed instruments.
This is a once in a lifetime ambitious project - a true magnum opus filmed during the pandemic in Brooklyn NYC.
It was initiated by Ivo Perelman, a Free Jazz tenor saxophonist, and painter of abstract art, who played duets with this very diverse of group of 12 musicians, with many different ethnic and national backgrounds, different ages, different histories and training and disciplines.
All of this has been distilled into the spontaneous improvisation heard in this massively ambitious project.
It all sounds crazy and impossible to achieve, yet somehow it came together against the odds.
