Drummer, pianist, composer. The New York Times has an obituary and an article with links to seven DeJohnette recordings.
I was fortunate to hear DeJohnette in 2013 at the Chicago Jazz Festival, where he assembled Special Legends Edition Chicago, with Roscoe Mitchell, Henry Threadgill, Muhal Richard Abrams, and Larry Gray. I wrote about that performance, which was released as the 2014 ECM recording Made in Chicago.
