Free jazz is a 60 year development in the history of jazz, even the mainstream of music today, no musicians can ignore its influence, especially innovators like Ornette Coleman, his ideas and language on the saxophone and his great compositions are still modern, even in institutions which usually ignore anything after 1960.
You can find the desire to break away from what came before in every style and form.Many artists looked for ways to express outside the boundaries of their community.

At last!! THANK YOU!!
