Album Notes & Community Reviews

Teaming with a stellar cast including Kenny Wheeler and Richard Teitelbaum, Anthony Braxton delivered a phenomenally ambitious, boundary-shattering avant-garde jazz document for Arista Records. 'New York, Fall 1974' is a remarkably dense, fiercely energetic exploration of modern creative music, seamlessly merging incredibly complex, highly mathematical post-bop structures with wonderfully hypnotic, mysterious free improvisation.
