Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The 'Annette' in question is the obscure but always fascinating composer-singer-pianist Annette Peacock, formerly married to both the bassist Gary Peacock and the pianist Paul Bley, who are joined here by the trumpeter Franz Koglmann for a programme of their ex-wife's tunes. Bley has been exploring the likes of 'Blood', 'Touching' and 'Mister Joy' for most of his long career, but still manages to find something new within their strange, elliptical, allusive contours. Which raises the question: how about a new Annette Peacock album, somebody?
