Cecil Taylor’s quietly emotional piano solo
at Ornette Coleman’s memorial.
While they never played together regularly Ornette Coleman and Cecil Taylor were two of the most important innovators in avant-garde and free jazz.
On June 27, 2015, 16 days after Coleman’s death at the age of 85, a memorial took place at Riverside Church in West Harlem.
Cecil Taylor, who was then 86, performs a mostly quiet and spiritual piano solo that is somber and filled with a surprising amount of space.
It is a historic and emotional performance.
