Forces in Motion: Anthony Braxton and the Meta-reality of Creative Music

This book should be required reading for anyone interested in my music, declared composer and multi-instrumentalist Anthony Braxton. One of jazz’s most important figures, Braxton transcends the usual critical boundaries with works ranging from a piece for 100 tubas to compositions for interplanetary orchestras. Based on interviews from a 1985 tour, this is a fascinating profile of a musical visionary and his ethical, political, and spiritual beliefs. Absolutely essential reading. - The Wire.
