{"value"=>"<p>This series includes over 300 audio and video recordings of live performances, studio recordings, alternate mixes and masters, interviews, and master classes. It is in two divisions: Early Recordings (1957-1963) and Return to Performing (2003-2015).</p> <p>Early Recordings feature recording sessions with Shafi Hadi, Hasaan Ibn Ali, Don Cherry, and Ed Blackwell; and live performances with Tony Scott, Sonny Rollins, and Charles Mingus. Further 1960s recordings can be heard on a 1994 broadcast on WKCR-FM, Columbia University in New York.</p> <p>The bulk of the series is in the second division, Return to Performing. Most of these are live performances, some under Grimes' leadership (or co-leadership), but the bulk with other leaders. Musicians heard with Grimes include Rashied Ali, Marshall Allen, Marilyn Crispell, Andrew Cyrille, Bennie Maupin, David Murray, Marc Ribot, Perry Robinson, Cecil Taylor, Wadada Leo Smith, Roy Campbell, Jr., Joseph Jarman, Ted Curson, William Parker, David Murray, Hamid Drake, Kidd Jordan, Fred Anderson, Charlie Persip, Onaje Allen Gumbs, Jemeel Moondoc, Bill Dixon, Roswell Rudd, Patty Waters, Dave Douglas, Roscoe Mitchell, Connie Crothers, Amina Claudine Myers, and Jason Kao Hwang.</p> <p>Some live performances were commercially released and exist as both original recordings and mixed and edited masters. There are a few studio recording sessions as well.</p> <p>There are also several interviews and oral histories with Grimes, as well as recordings from the Henry Grimes Festival produced by WKCR at Columbia University, which broadcast continuously for five days in late May 2003. The festival included interviews with Grimes and live performances. Other recordings include master classes at Berklee College of Music (2009), Mills College (2010), Hassadna Musical Conservatory in Jerusalem, Israel (2012), and at the Quebec City Jazz Festival (2012).</p> <p>Some of the original media items contained papers with further contextual information. These can be found in the insert file at the top of this series.</p>"}
