Several months back I happened upon a survey stating that, according to Neilson, jazz now held the dubious honor of being the least listened to genre in the US. The piece went on state that both “jazz and classical represent just 1.4% of total U.S. music consumption apiece…with classical album sales higher for 2014.”
This soon led to a conversation with pal and record collector/music supervisor Zach Cowie, and we came up with the idea for Abstract Truths, an ongoing forum to invite some of our friends to flex a sampling of their favorites within the medium. Kicking the series off is Cowie, his selections spanning continents, modalities and beyond.
