Description
Vijay Iyer & Wadada Leo Smith — Defiant Life
"This recording session was conditioned by our ongoing sorrow and outrage over the past year's cruelties, but also by our faith in human possibility." — Vijay Iyer
Anchored in the idea that, despite all obstacles, the human experience casts a net of possibilities, Defiant Life — Vijay Iyer and Wadada Leo Smith's second duo recording for ECM — proves a profound meditation on the human condition and both the suffering and resilience it entails. Recorded within two days at Lugano's Auditorio Stelio Molo, Defiant Life was produced by Manfred Eicher.
