i hate jazz Unfortunately you have to say it like that. I understand, of course, how sophisticated all this is. How important. A real musical avant-garde. Highly concentrated laboratory work where things are brought forward. Where sound researchers boldly blast traditional forms at four o’clock in the morning and carry art into the future. Where else can you find that nowadays, when practically every novel is cobbled together according to the well-worn recipes of some musty writing school? If artistic creation should have any meaning at all, then it should be to survey new terrain. You can still feel this curiosity in jazz.
