Ornette Coleman - 30th Annual San Francisco Jazz Festival

Friday, Nov 9, 2012 8:00p
Davies Symphony Hall San Francisco, CA

While he coined the term “free jazz” with his classic 1960 double quartet album Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation, he’s a composer of expansive ambition whose tunes have become essential touchstones in the jazz canon.
