Marilyn Crispell: Uncompromising Power and Grace

Post author By Mike
Post date March 21, 2009

: Marilyn Crispell (via last.fm)

An interview from All About Jazz:

Her notes crash like waves at sea on a stormy winter’s night; they gently float and slowly fall like early morning mist; yet it’s the silence—the silence between the notes—which provides the haunting poetic beauty that is the music of pianist Marilyn Crispell.
