Playlist, Week of 2017-12-24

Holiday greetings to all!... Really digging two of the free Anthony Braxton download offerings from the Tri-Centric Foundation... Creative Music Orchestra (NYC) 2011 is another brilliant large ensemble recording, while Trio (Knoxville) 2016 is a wonderfully innovative with Braxton, Taylor Ho Bynum, and vocalist Kyoko Kitamura, whose singing I have really enjoyed on Trillium J... at times it sounds like she may be incorporating parts of the opera here... Have also enjoyed working my way through the two live evenings of  the Art Ensemble of Chicago from the Empty Foxhole in Philadelphia... They were really on for these... I'm thinking after I do my spin through all my Threadgill recordings I may need to do a second round through all my Art Ensemble ones (and Braxton, and Muhal Richard Abrams)... AACM-related music has given me deep joy throughout the years...
