Mal Waldron - The Mighty Warriors: Live in Antwerp (Live) '2024

Tracks list

“Lacy and Waldron first shared a stage at the Five Spot in 1958 and had
performed together ever since, often in Europe, where both men settled in the
1960s. They weren’t an obvious match. Lacy’s soprano saxophone had
a chirping, fluttering sound that often evoked a lightness, an irrepressible
jauntiness. Waldron’s sound had a vein of melancholy as deep and as rich
as a Black spiritual, or a Schubert lieder. But the two men shared an affinity
with the music of Thelonious Monk and had a similar relationship with the
avant-garde, whose freedoms they embraced without ever turning their back on
melody. These contrasts and convergences made for a sublime chemistry, and it
was on thrilling display that night in Antwerp, the last in a series of three
concerts held in celebration of Waldron’s 70th birthday.” ADAM
