Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from March 19, 2022 Favoriting

Dave Sewelson's avatar View Dave Sewelson's profile 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.

one of my first return to live music experiences during covid era was william parker trio with cooper-moore and hamid drake in the walk with the wind series in centra park honoring john lewis, back in april of last year. was an incredible experience seeing this trio in that setting (summit rock in seneca village, which i learned the history of) and performance. thank you to cooper-moore and co for that.

Speaking of waves, in today's science news: "A new theory suggests there may be another 'anti-universe,' running backward in time prior to the Big Bang.... We would never have access to our twin, the mirror universe, because it exists 'behind' our Big Bang, before the beginning of our cosmos."
