thought i'd start this thread and see if it goes anywhere: the idea is to list aural art (music / sound) we love and which taught us something. it doesn't have to have used the concept. old stuff is good. new stuff is the goal. say something about what you post if you want.

i'll kick it off with a few things. hopefully you'll add to it.

christian marclay, artist in the area of visual music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yqM3dAqTzs

charles mingus, mingus ah um. caught me off guard in a bookstore recently and made me hear again what an amazing series of structured compositions this is. mingus well-deserved claim to serious composer status.

charlie parker, lover man from the dial sesions. motherlode taught me a lot about this in a forum conversation. i just love the feeling, which always seems new.

george rusell, newport 1964. again the old speaks of the moment (this moment)

gonzalo rubalcaba, images (giant steps) jazz re-re-composed live

jason moran just needs to be here. and we should thank him for it

krystof komeda, crazy girl. an album by "the komeda project" reconstructing polish jazz in new jersey http://www.komedaproject.com

tony malaby, adobe

Messiaen, MMMMMMmmm.....

Contrast these two movements of his "Quartet for the End of Time." Both absolutely beautiful for different reasons.
