Saxophone's adventure in pursuit of modern jazz
Sonny Rollins strikes an exquisite balance between freedom and structure.
"Reel Life," released in 1982, is a work that embodies Rollins' mature performance technique and musical exploration. Its appeal lies in its experimental approach that transcends the boundaries of traditional jazz and its performance that maximizes the expressive power of the saxophone. The improvisations on each track are free and precise, demonstrating the infinite possibilities of jazz.
