Marilyn Crispell, Mark Dresser, Gerry Hemingway Play Braxton is an album by pianist Marilyn Crispell, bassist Mark Dresser, and drummer Gerry Hemingway, recorded at Tedesco Studios in Teaneck, New Jersey.[1] Although the CD booklet states that it was recorded in April 2010, it was actually recorded in April 2011, and was released in 2012 by Tzadik Records.[2][3]

The album features compositions by Anthony Braxton. Crispell, Dresser, and Hemingway were members of Braxton's quartet during the 1980s and 1990s, and reunited in 2010 for a concert in honor of his 65th birthday.[4] A discussion following the concert led to the recording of the album the following year.[4][2]

AllMusic[5]

In a review for AllMusic, arwulf arwulf wrote: "The trio... achieves and sustains an empowered communion while celebrating Braxton's highly advanced formulae for collective improvisation... the archetypal changes wrought by a great and influential composer are expanded upon by artists whose close involvement made it possible to further the ideas and methodology of the masters."[5]

Writing for The New York City Jazz Record, Stuart Broomer commented: "Crispell is magnificent, displaying the breadth of her playing... Dresser and Hemingway play at a level of thought and interaction most can only imagine and all three navigate this music with an intimacy that blurs compositional and improvisational methodologies into indivisible music. It's a masterpiece in itself, as well as an invitation to investigate all the original quartet's recordings."[6]

Robert Bush, in a review for the San Diego Reader, stated: "To me, Braxton is an irrefutable genius and a singular visionary whose music will bear serious study for hundreds of years to come... This is a must for creative music fans."[7]
