About this Item

First edition, first printing, signed by Coleman on the front panel of the wrappers, and with two pages of autograph manuscript in black felt tip pen on the stationery of The Argent Hotel, San Francisco, charts in preparation for his Ornette Coleman Quartet SF Jazz Festival concert in November 2005, loosely inserted, together with concert ticket stubs. Alto-saxist, composer and educator Coleman (1930-2015) was one of the most powerful and contentious innovators in the history of jazz. The present manuscript is only the second Coleman manuscript we have ever encountered on the market and we have located none at auction. Octavo. Numerous illustrations to the text. Original laminated pictorial stiff card wrappers. Ownership inscription to the half-title, else very good indeed.
