This is a 1987 solo piano album by the American jazz pianist Cecil Taylor, who, despite having a background in contemporary music and classical music, pursued an extremely physical approach to expression. The album features live recordings from the Workshop Freie Music 1986 held at The Academy of Arts in Berlin, Germany, and is dedicated to the saxophonist Jimmy Lyons, who passed away in May of the same year. Tracks like the impressive B4/B6 showcase Taylor's innovative performances, transcending the concept of jazz with relentless attacks that unleash intricate melodies like a storm. Through Taylor's avant-garde sound world, listeners can experience a higher realm of music appreciation that goes beyond conventional jazz. This album is highly recommended for fans of contemporary music as well.
B4: For the Rabbit
