Album Notes & Community Reviews

Renowned avant-garde composer and saxophonist Anthony Braxton reinterprets traditional jazz structures on the Paris-recorded 'Dona Lee'. Accompanied by a tightly integrated quartet, the session balances modern creative composition with intense, boundary-pushing free improvisation over standard chord progressions.
