Jazz requires that musicians be able to merge their unique voices in the totalizing, collective improvisations of polyphony and heterophony. The implications of this esthetic are profound and more than vaguely threatening, for no political system has yet been devised with social principles which reward maximal individualism within the framework of spontaneous egalitarian interaction
- John Szwed, in Josef Skvorecky and the Tradition of Jazz Literature, World Literature Today, vol. 54, no. 4 (1980) p. 588, citado por George Lewis (na foto) num importante texto sobre o trabalho da AACM.
