| Abstract |
""Sonny Rollins: live at Laren" is precisely that, the testimony to the recital that was given in 1973 at the Festival of Laren, the Netherlands, by the great tenor saxophonist, whose contribution to the consolidation of hard bop was decisive. Rollins appeared on the jazz scene when a lot of young musicians were beginning to look for derivations to the bebop that had been 'created' by Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker. Among those who aspired to revolutionize the routine which bop had become, Rollins was one of the most radical. This concert in which he is accompanied by a magnificent rhythm section, is like a synopsis of his career because it serves to display his habitual sense of musical irony."--Container. |
