평등과 자유를 갈망하는 사람들의 음악 - Haden & Jones

공연소개를 옮겨 보면;
After a combined century of creating cutting edge American Jazz, Hank Jones and Charlie Haden return to their roots and crafted a beautiful, Monk-inspired masterpiece. In 1995 the two veterans released Steal Away, a landmark album of rural hymns and spirituals that could be said to mediate on the countryside foundations of Monk's own music. Pianist Jones is now 89 years old, and according to Gary Giddins in the New Yorker, he has never played better. Bassist Haden is one of America's living jazz greats, a founding member of Ornette Coleman's legendary original quartet and a pioneer in multiple genres. This concert presents a rate opportunity to hear these two masters play music from Steal Away, riffing on their musical homage to jazz's rural roots within a framework of Monk's life and homeland. The sources of Monk's own music lie in a devout religious background, cultivated in North Carolina, and in his travels with an evangelist during the heart of the Great Depression. This special concert even brings two living jazz legends together to play out their own version of that story. As Maurice Jackson's brilliant, Grammy nominated liner notes to Steal Away tell us: "This music was the product of an enslaved African people. [...] Many of these songs are from a people yearning for equality and freedom, in this world and the next."

Monk도 모르고 Hank Jones도 모르면서 Charlie Haden 꼭 한번 보고 싶어서 다녀왔는데, 파리 한번 다녀온 앙띨레스 사람, 평생 파리를 마음에 담고 죽을때까지 그 이야기만 한다고 하듯 그리되지 않으리라 장담할 수 없겠습니다.
