The short-lived New York Art Quartet was comprised of trombonist <a href="spotify:artist:6nCAbymHv2MRYV1sluCDr9">Roswell Rudd</a>, altoist <a href="spotify:artist:3zPUfW3hRI4NIvhtr6UjH1">John Tchicai</a>, drummer <a href="spotify:artist:21onGb3BOI7oP9wwNetyyu">Milford Graves</a> (succeeded by <a href="spotify:artist:0YOcIbXUKMwxLXVJ1DlJbH">Louis Moholo</a>) and several different bass players including Lewis Worrell, Reggie Workman and Finn Von Eyben. Their music was fairly free, emotional, and quite notable for the trombone-alto frontline. The group was formed after <a href="spotify:artist:3zPUfW3hRI4NIvhtr6UjH1">Tchicai</a>departed from The New York Contemporary Five, and the New York Art Quartet lasted until <a href="spotify:artist:5XcpgxdFA6sz6lvUvzmygg">Rudd</a> joined Archie Shepp's Quartet. The New York Art Quartet recorded three albums from 1964-65: one apiece for ESP, Fontana and <a href="spotify:artist:35U9lQaRWSQISxQAB94Meo">America</a>. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
