Summary:Common sense says you can't make a living in America playing avant-garde improvisational jazz. Yet somehow Ken Vandermark does it. Following the artful cinema verite style of the internationally acclaimed Sheriff, this film forgoes all interviews and voice-overs. It is a fly-on-the-wall time capsule that expertly captures every sound and texture of this most American of art forms.

Description
Summary:The "musician" in question is the iconoclastic, Chicago-wrought jazz performer Ken Vandermark. In this documentary - a volume in Kraus's Work Series that pulls inspiration from broadcaster-cum-historian Studs Terkel's writings - Vandermark engages in candid rehearsals and performances with an ensemble; the film then features one of Vandemark's sizzling solo numbers before a closed audience. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
