I love it that I am so confounded and challenged by Anthony Braxton's new GTM (Syntax) 2017... vocal choirs are not normally my thing... I am also decidedly not an opera buff, but I love Braxtons' Trillium operas... well, more for the instrumental settings than the singing, but still, I am finding the operas dense, challenging, and deeply satisfying... these new vocal-only pieces, though, are... well, not rough going, but challenging... and pretty damn funny at times... Alexander Hawkins continues to delight me... his piano playing and arranging on Unit[e] is stunning...
