Ornette Coleman

Muziek > Jazz > Ornette Coleman

The iconoclastic alto sax player has put the "free" into Free Jazz for more than four decades. This revolutionary saxophonist coined the term and style Free Jazz. Coleman is one of the few jazz greats who, similar to modern artists in other mediums, is not a master craftsman. Coleman's musical cohorts include such future jazz stars as drummer Billy Higgins and bassist/bandleader Charlie Haden. Coleman first recorded under the West Coast jazz label Contemporary Records.
