This week, one of the great innovators in creative music, saxophonist/composer Roscoe Mitchell will be featured. I've been enjoying Mitchell's reworking of trio improvisations as transcribed for orchestra. We'll also check out Prime the new release from bassist Christen McBride's New Jawn. Plus, new works and recent finds.
