Charles Mingus bestrode the world of jazz like a colossus during a lifetime spent unleashing a torrent of artistic creativity. A turbulent and passionate personality - composer, pianist and exponent of the double bass - Mingus understood the linear heritage of his music, while rejoicing in the freedom to embrace new ideas and concepts. With Ah Um! he left a musical legacy that still has the power to intrigue, shock and delight.
