Recorded between 1963-2019, Degrees Of Freedom Found is a six CD set "Blue" Gene Tyranny hand selected from archival, live recordings, and brand new first recordings before his passing in 2020. Part new album, part retrospective, this box offers a fresh perspective on "Blue" Gene Tyranny's musical legacy. Blue's career defining moment, composing the music for Robert Ashley's magnum opus, Perfect Lives, typifies the Buddha-like self-effacement of his musical life. Often lending a substantial supporting role to his friends' more visible projects, Blue's music under his own name blossomed in a more esoteric and highly personal manner outside of the spotlight. Across it's many previously unreleased recordings, Degrees Of Freedom Found showcases a surprising, extroverted side of Blue's music, alongside the virtuoso works of sensitive spirit for which New Music devotees have long revered him.
