Legendary jazz drummer Andrew Cyrille speaks on pleasing a crowd, his dream collaboration, and playing with Bill Harper.
Following a rapturously received gig in January 2020 with bassist Ben Street, pianist David Virelles, and guitarist Bill Frisell, legendary jazz drummer Andrew Cyrille intended to return that April as part of a duo with saxophonist Billy Harper.
I was just thinking about this over the years, and I said to myself, “I’d like to do something with Billy.” I knew that he had come from Houston, Texas, so I asked him, “Would you like to do something with me down in Houston?” He said, “Sure.” I called David Dove in Houston, and then David put me in touch with Pedro Moreno from Austin, and we’re gonna do something in April in both cities. We’ll probably do something a little different as a saxophone/drum duo.
Life is what it is, and life influences us in so many different ways, so all artists do is express what they feel in whatever idiom they are about the life that they’re living, and whatever the dynamics are of that life that makes them feel what it is that they’re expressing. It’s the same across the board – it’s not really any different, except that one chooses the vehicle of expression: dance, poetry, music, painting.
