About This Release
A recording by alto saxophonist Bobby Zankel and his group the Wonderful Sound 6, celebrating the music of bassist William Parker — a central figure of the New York free-jazz community — captured at a Kraków performance. Released by Not Two in 2017, the album documents Zankel, a Philadelphia-based veteran who studied with Cecil Taylor, leading an ensemble through Parker's compositions, a tribute drawing the two cities' creative-music communities together.
