How to Listen: Composer George Lewis and 'Shadowgraph, 5' - Los Angeles Times

A look at a "Shadowgraph 5, an experimental and improvisatory 1997 sextet by George Lewis, who has dazzlingly encapsulated African-American and American experimental musical traditions, playing trombone with (and writing the definitive history of) the revolutionary Black collective, AACM, in Chicago, holding academic posts at UCSD and Columbia, running the Kitchen in New York, all the while exploring, often controversially, the racial complexion of advanced music theory, philosophy, improvisation, the avant-garde, the use of electronics and much more.
