Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from July 3, 2021 Favoriting

Charles Mingus said jazz was a word invented to separate musicians from their money. Music for a Free World brings us together, drawing listeners to the healing power of smooth free jazz. Each week, surprise guests bring their own sides to spin and their instruments of choice to spontaneously jam.

Favoriting July 3, 2021: The Brooklyn-based noise-jazz violinist Sana Nagano often finds herself at the center of the storm. As other instruments crash and careen around her, her assuredly melodic violin works to ground and stabilize the overall sound.
And nowhere is this better heard than on Smashing Humans, her new quintet album released March 19th on 577 Records. Featuring Peter Apfelbaum on sax, Keisuke Matsuno on guitar, Ken Filiano on bass, and Joe Hertenstein on drums, it’s an LP full of gorgeous chaos and explosive energy, with Nagano controlling the flow. It’s music of great power, but also balance.

The artwork on this recent release is quite distinctive, credited to Rachelle Viola. Did Ms. Nagano have any choice on that and any comment on it.

I just got the Smashing Humans release on digital via bandcamp but haven't sat down with it yet. Enjoying listening as I do a bit of homework.

i Love hearing it!~ that perspective right up my alley.
the band "death" from the early 70s never caught on, maybe partly because people didn't understand that "death" was meant as a positive thing.
