The Belgrade Concert

The Belgrade Concert is a live album by Ornette Coleman.

On the album, which was recorded one day after the concert documented on Live in Paris 1971, Coleman is joined by saxophonist Dewey Redman, bassist Charlie Haden, and drummer Ed Blackwell.

"[3] In a review for AllMusic, Scott Yanow wrote: "This valuable live import features Ornette Coleman... and his 1971 Quartet... performing Haden's 'Song for Che' and four obscure Coleman compositions.

The recording quality is decent and Redman proves to be a perfect musical partner for Ornette.

"[1] While interviewing Charlie Haden, pianist and composer Ethan Iverson described the recording as "one of the greatest things I have ever heard," and told Haden: "Your combination of folk song, avant-garde sensibility, and Bach-like classical harmony is a stream in this music just as distinctive as Thelonious Monk or Elvin Jones.
