Roscoe Mitchell 
Nonaah
Nessa 37 - 2 CD set

An expanded 2 CD reissue of saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell's most notorious recording outside of the Art Ensemble Of Chicago. Nonaah (No nay ah) earned him a "Record Of The Year" award in the 1978 Down Beat critics poll. The music consists of a 31 minute solo concert performance of the title piece, two duets (one with Anthony Braxton, the other with Malachi Favors), a trio piece with Muhal Richard Abrams and George Lewis, two more Mitchell solo pieces (one from a concert, the other a studio recording), and a 17 1/2 minute version of the title piece with four alto saxophonists (Mitchell, Henry Threadgill, Joseph Jarman and Wallace McMillan).
