Trombone player Roswell Rudd started out as a traditional trombonist who played with Herbie Nichols and was part of the avant-garde in the 1960s with such musicians as Archie Shepp and Steve Lacy. With the calm, self-assured pianist Lafayette Harris he covers the whole spectrum from ragtime to free jazz. ‘Rudd gets more trombone out of his instrument than any colleague, past or present’ (New Yorker). ‘A trombonist of such sweeping power and majesty that he transcends all styles’ (New York Times).
