2023.10.09 Matthew Shipp on Albert Ayler - 2 of 3

There is a point at which the usefulness of language ends. You are simply not going to be able to express in words the sense of awe that you feel when creation overwhelms you but you always know when someone else is feeling it, too. In this moment you will find pianist Matthew Shipp and others who admire saxophonist Albert Ayler.

Albert Ayler died at age 34 in 1970 and to this day his life feels more like an ellipsis or a question mark than a complete sentence. So much undone. And yet, just months before he died, he threw down an exclamation point. There were 2 performances at a glorious shrine to Modernism, La Fondation Maeght in the south of France, that stated who Albert Ayler was and how he believed music could convey the ineffable. Do we have recordings of this performance? It’s Deep Focus; of course we do!

Matthew Shipp joins Mitch Goldman this Monday (10/9) from 6 pm to 9 pm NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD and 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/
