Alan Silva
's playing and live composition have been a highlight of the avant-garde's living history for the past 35+ years. From his work with
Sun Ra's Arkestra
, through extended relationships with
Bill Dixon
,
Cecil Taylor
, and
Albert Ayler
, on into the
Celestial Communications Orchestra
and the
Frank Wright Center of the World Band
, Silva has been one of the music's most consistently valuable thinkers. A child of Alan Silva's other-worldly strategies for double bass,
William Parker
is the premier bassist of the post-Vietnam era.
A Hero's Welcome
is a spontaneous composition dedicated to the spiritual essence of Sun Ra and to all the great string players of the 20th century. It was recorded at the first duo performance Silva and Parker undertook, and is volume one of Eremite's Silva/Parker duos. Two full improvising orchestras couldn't mix it up more completely.
