Steve Lacy-Art (by Herman Melville)

from “Steve Lacy ‎-- Momentum“ 1987 Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Tambourine -- Steve Potts Bass -- Jean-Jacques Avenel Drums -- Oliver Johnson Piano -- Bobby Few Soprano Saxophone, Tambourine, Composed By -- Steve Lacy Vocals, Violin, Cello -- Irene Aebi Producer -- Ed Michel Art In placid hours well-pleased we dream Of many a brave unbodied scheme. But form to lend, pulsed life create, What unlike things must meet and mate: A flame to melt--a wind to freeze; Sad patience--joyous energies; Humility--yet pride and scorn; Instinct and study; love and hate; Audacity--reverence. These must mate, And fuse with Jacob’s mystic heart, To wrestle with the angel--Art.
