Susie Ibarra, Joseph Jarman, William Parker, Matthew Shipp, Roswell
Rudd, Alan Silva, John Tchicai, Peter Brotzmann, Denis Charles, Glenn

OUT IN THE OPEN gives voice and attention to the many artists who created
what has become known as 'free jazz'. Through the voices and sounds

Denis Charles: A Conversation Interrupted
2002, 75 minutes, Digital Video
Unknown to the mainstream, Denis A. Charles was a legend of avant-garde
jazz. In 1954, Charles met Cecil Taylor, and his drumming caught the
attention of innovative musicians such as Thelonious Monk, Steve Lacy,
Archie Shepp, Jimmy Giuffre, Gil Evans, Don Cherry, Sonny Rollins and
many others. Performances and stories shot during the last two years
of his life are interspersed with anecdotes by family, friends and fellow
musicians. Doumbé's documentary is a sensitive and heartfelt
celebration of a musician who left his indelible mark on the scene.
Preceded by
Edward English
