Originally recorded in 1974 and now reissued by Play Loud!, It's Up To You is a remarkable document of free improvisation and experimental sound art brought to life by an extraordinary gathering of musicians. The project was conceived by sound artist Limpe Fuchs, sculptor and sound artist Paul Fuchs, and celebrated pianist Friedrich Gulda, who together formed Trio Anima — a group dedicated to pushing the boundaries between jazz, experimental music, and avant-garde performance.
What makes It's Up To You such a compelling listen is the depth of its ensemble, which also features jazz legends Albert Mangelsdorff and Barre Phillips, alongside oud master Munir Bashir and others, resulting in a wide-ranging set of solos, duos, trios, and full ensemble pieces that feel genuinely spontaneous and alive. This gatefold reissue comes complete with original liner notes and photographs, offering both historical context and an immersive visual experience that honors the spirit of the original 1974 double LP release.
