Today's new episode of The Tonearm Podcast features Greenleaf Music's Dave Douglas, a trumpeter and bandleader who recently released a terrific record called 'Transcend' with the quintet GIFTS. The conversation moves through Duke Ellington's sacred concerts, the Jack Whitten retrospective at MoMA that influenced Douglas's thoughts about layering and raw material, and the Booker Little recordings that broke open his entire approach to composition. This chat is about process in the deepest sense: not technique, but the ongoing discipline of not knowing, and what it takes to keep finding new ways in. Don't miss it: https://lnkd.in/etGhr6kn
