ORNETTE COLEMAN
Thursday, September 24, 2009 at 8 PM
Massey Hall
$89.50 - $69.50
Fifty years ago, saxophonist Ornette Coleman caused the world
of jazz to take a sharp left turn. The Shape Of Jazz To Come
was a groundbreaking album and its influence has since been felt
by virtually every jazz musician. Coleman was recognized in
2007 with both a Pulitzer Prize and a Grammy Award for Lifetime
Achievement. We know first hand how powerfully his music
continues to resonate, thanks to the deeply memorable concert at
Massey Hall in 2005.
"There are concerts in the world of jazz, plenty of concerts,
and then there are events. Ornette Coleman’s appearance in
Toronto was both." --The Globe & Mail
