Along with the celebrations of Amiri Baraka and Roy Campbell on the final day of Vision Festival 19 are several ensemble situations for piano from a duet fir Angelica Sanchez, a trio for Connie Crothers and the venerable Dave Burrell in striking quartet with Kidd Jordan, William Parker and Hamid Drake.
And the voice of Fay Victor in a drum duet makes a perfect contrast.
It is a quintessence of the Vision Festival outlook that Art for Arts has carefully nurtured through 19 of these very elaborate love labors rising from a solid ground of community rather than being imposed from above by commerce.
