2023.07.10 William Hooker on Joseph Jarman - 2 of 3

Who was Joseph Jarman? A shaman? A conjurer? A Buddhist priest? A poet? An Aikido sensei? In the words of his fellow member of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Lester Bowie, "Well, I guess that all depends on, ah, what you know." We know that in the universe of this music, which thrives on original thinking, few ranged as far and as free as Jarman. He brought us songs and stories, large-scale compositions, movement, theatricality, costumes and confrontation, along with collaborations and improvisations on every member of the woodwind family (as well as those "little instruments"). With Jarman, walls turned into windows, windows into doors, and those doors flew off their hinges. So what's out there on the other side? Is it any surprise that William Hooker is summoning Jarman for this week's Deep Focus? An improvising drummer who puts all his food on the same plate, composing spontaneously for silent films, collaborating with DJs and rockers, exploring architecture and futurism and tribal traditions... hungry for the world. No, this one is gonna fly like hot lava from a volcano. This Monday (7/10) from 6p to 9p on WKCR 89.9FM and WKCR-HD in NYC, wkcr.org on the web. Next week it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/ #WKCR #JazzAlternatives #DeepFocus #WilliamHooker #JosephJarman #AEC #AECo #ArtEnsembleofChicago #JazzRadio #JazzInterview #JazzPodcast Photo credit: fair use.
