The real David Murray might just be hiding in this double DVD set! There is a strange paradox running through these three films: when we watch them, we don’t learn so much about the man, but a lot about his music. Yet this is surely where the true David Murray lies: “I’m a jazzman: don’t look elsewhere, don’t mistake me for someone else. Everything I have to say is in my music; it talks about me and the world...”
DAVID MURRAY, I’M A JAZZMAN (2008 - 53’) A slice of life captured by the camera, and a privileged testimony of a life merged with the story of jazz. Features Cassandra Wilson, gwo Ka Masters, Amiri Baraka, and more.
DAVID MURRAY AND THE GWO KA MASTERS - LiVE in SAinTE LUCiE (2008 - 46’) This film, shot during a stopover in the West Indies, restores the energy of a masterful concert performed with traditional Guadeloupian drums fused with supremely avant garde jazz.
DAVID MURRAY BLACK SAINT QUARTET LiVE AT BANLIEUES BLEUES FESTIVAL (2010 - 38’) A film in the form of a style exercise, or an exercise with style, pertinence, and sensitivity, like a mirror in which jazz would be reflected. Featuring Lafayette gilchrist (p), Jaribu Shahid (b), and Hamid Drake (d).

“Few musicians in jazz history have proven more vigorously productive and resourceful than David Murray. During the past 35 years, from the moment he first visited New York as a 20-yearold student, playing in a walkup loft in 1975, David has careened forward in a cool, collected, rocket-fueled streak.” —Gary Giddins “One of the most innovative and inventive musicians in jazz.” — BBC Radio 3
“The most widely recorded saxophonist of his generation, David Murray’s brawny tenor has been heard in a dizzying array of configurations.” — All About |
