It is four in the monring and my people are sleeping. But I 'can't sleep. I keep thinking about these friends who sleep around me; about what we're doing and why. I'm thinking Revolution, brothers; and what have I done as an individual to end our oppressive government without having to kill anyone. So far, my two biggest moves have been buying the MC5 album and' re­ fusing to take my army physical. Not exactly a Che Guevara, am I? But that isn't what I wanted to tell you. I really wanted to explain some of the changes that have taken place since I first decided to have Board 46 remove my name from their mailing list. On the good side there is Freedom. I have never been as totally insane with Freedom as I am at this moment. Each morning I think: "Wow, man, you should be locked up you're so crazy!" I mean all I ever do now is touch people, smoke dope, lay with my woman, and suggest that people overthrow the government. And that's cool, but' it's getting out of hand. I mean the whole idea of draft refusal, of stopping in your tracks and telling the system to shove it, has emerged into a romantic birthday party.

Frink, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2016 Ornette Coleman (1930-2015) is frequently referred to as not only a great visionary in jazz music but as also the father of the jazz avant-garde movement. As such, his work has been a topic of discussion for nearly five decades among jazz theorists, musicians, scholars and aficionados. While this music was once controversial and divisive, it eventually found a wealth of supporters within the artistic community and has been incorporated into the jazz narrative and canon. Coleman’s musical practices found their greatest acceptance among the following generations of improvisers who embraced the message of “free jazz” as a natural evolution in style.

    1. A LETTER DEVIPUR , February 17, 1947 My reply to your previous letter was still pending when I got this second one from you. But there was nothing in your first letter that needed immediate reply. At present there is great strain on me, both physical and mental. My work here instead of getting easier is becoming more difficult each day, as oppsition is increasing. All the same, my faith and courage are steadily growing. After all, I am here to do or die, am I not? There is no middle course here. .1 It is not certain when the third stage of my tour will begin. I have to reach Haimchar on the 24th. .2 The further programme will depend on how exhausted I feel. I shall be satisfied if God sustains me through the programme even up to the 24th. [From Gujarati] Eklo Jane Re, p. 144 2. ADVICE TO A CONGRESS WORKER3 DEVIPUR , February 17, 1947 Did you realize that by indulging in this vain display you would acerbate communal passions? This display means nothing to me. .4 but it will leave a legacy of ill-will behind which will continue to poison the communal relations in this village for a long time to come. You are a Congressman. Did not it occur to you, knowing my strong views on khadi, that ribbons and buntings made of mill cloth would only hurt me? I wouldn’t have felt so hurt if, instead of floral decorations, you had presented me with garlands of yarn.

  • The Avant-Garde 15
    CURRENT A HEAD ■ 407 ORNETTE COLEMAN lonely woman CECIL TAYLOR bulbs CECIL TAYLOR willisau concert, part 3 ALBERT AYLER ghosts DAVID MURRAY el matador THE AVANT-GARDE 15 Forward March T e word “avant-garde” originated in the French military to denote the advanced guard: troops sent ahead of the regular army to scout unknown territory. In English, the word was adapted to describe innovative composers, writers, painters, and other artists whose work was so pioneering that it was believed to be in the vanguard of contemporary thinking. Avant-gardism represented a movement to liberate artists from the restraints of tradition, and it often went hand-in-hand with progressive social thinking. T ose who championed avant-garde art tended to applaud social change. T ose who criticized it for rejecting prevailing standards couched their dismay in warnings against moral laxity or political anarchy. In the end, however, all art, traditional or avant-garde, must stand on its merit, inde- pendent of historic infl uences. T e art that outrages one generation often becomes the tradition and homework assignments of the next: the paintings of Paul Cézanne and Pablo Picasso, music of Gustav Mahler and Claude Debussy, and writings of Marcel Proust and James Joyce were all initially considered avant-garde. Two especially promi- nent twentieth-century avant-garde movements gathered steam in the decades follow- ing the world wars, and jazz was vital to both. Sonny Rollins combined the harmonic progressions of bop with the freedom of the avant-garde and sustained an international following. He appeared with percussionist Victor See Yuen and trombonist Clifton © HERMAN LEONARD PHOTOGRAPHY LLC/CTS IMAGES.COM Anderson at a stadium in Louisiana, 1995.
