The Jazz Session #330: Andrew Cyrille
The Jazz Session - Un pódcast de Jason Crane
Andrew Cyrille's new CD is Route De Freres (TUM, 2011) with his band Haitian Fascination. In this interview, Cyrille talks about his own Haitian roots and his early childhood in Brooklyn; Haitian rhythms and how they're expressed on this new record; and the sound paintings that form the main suite, "Route De Freres." NOTE: I wrote a poem inspired by Andrew Cyrille's story. You can read it here.
