Art Ensemble Of Chicago is an avant-garde jazz group hailing from Chicago, Illinois. Formed in the late 1960s, they emerged from the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM). With their innovative and experimental approach to music, Art Ensemble Of Chicago has become a pioneering force in the jazz scene.

Inspired by artists such as Anthony Braxton, Don Cherry, and Albert Ayler, Art Ensemble Of Chicago pushes boundaries and challenges traditional notions of jazz. Their unique sound combines elements of free improvisation, African rhythms, and various musical styles from around the world.

Known for their captivating live performances and diverse instrumentation including saxophones, trumpets, percussion instruments, and more; Art Ensemble Of Chicago continues to captivate audiences with their fearless exploration of sound. They have left an indelible mark on the genre and remain influential to this day.

the art ensemble of chicagos non-cognitive aspects of the city is a double cd representing two sets recorded during the bands rare six-night engagement, march 30th through april 4th 2004, at the iridium jazz club in new york city. engagements of that length are rare nowadays and pi recordings was anxious to be able to hear the band develop their sound in front of an audience in one city for a week straight. rarer even than that though is the induction of new members, corey wilkes and jaribu shahid into a band with a history and influence as deep as the art ensembles. six nights, 14 sets in all, and by the time of these recordings on friday and saturday nights, the band was playing as one with power and cohesion. some will inevitably try to compare jaribu to malachi and corey to lester, a fools errand for sure. both bring their own strengths and voice to the music and neither try to copy the style of their predecessors.
