Bill
Frisell’s career as a guitarist and composer has spanned more than 40
years and many celebrated recordings, whose catalog has been cited by
Downbeat as "the best recorded output of the decade."
In recent
years, Frisell has forged a distinctive and fruitful collaboration with
the Blue Note label, releasing HARMONY, Valentine and FOUR to great
acclaim.
"Frisell has had a lot of practice putting high concept
into a humble package. Long hailed as one of the most distinctive and
original improvising guitarists of our time, he has also earned a
reputation for teasing out thematic connections with his music...
There’s a reason that Jazz at Lincoln Center had him program a series
called Roots of Americana." - New York Times
Recognized as one
of America’s 21 most vital and productive performing artists, Frisell
was named an inaugural Doris Duke Artist in 2012. He is also a
recipient of grants from United States Artists, Meet the Composer among
others. In 2016, he was a beneficiary of the first FreshGrass
Composition commission to preserve and support innovative grassroots
music. Upon San Francisco Jazz opening their doors in 2013, he served
as one of their Resident Artistic Directors. Bill is the subject of a
documentary film by director Emma Franz, entitled Bill Frisell: A
Portrait, which examines his creative process in depth, as well as an
extensive biography by Philip Watson, Beautiful Dreamer: The Guitarist
Who Changed The Sound of American Music.

"Frisell ha tenido mucha práctica poniendo un alto concepto en un paquete humilde. Aclamado durante mucho tiempo como uno de los guitarristas improvisadores más distintivos y originales de nuestro tiempo, también se ha ganado la reputación de desentrañar las conexiones temáticas con su música... Hay una razón por la que Jazz at Lincoln Center lo hizo programar una serie llamada Roots of Americana."- New York Times
Reconocida como una de las 21 artistas escénicas más vitales y productivas de Estados Unidos, Frisell fue nombrada Artista inaugural de Doris Duke en 2012. También es beneficiario de becas de Artistas de Estados Unidos, Conoce al Compositor entre otros. En 2016, fue beneficiario de la primera comisión de Composición de FreshGrass para preservar y apoyar la música innovadora de base.

Bill es el tema de un documental de la directora Emma Franz, titulado Bill Frisell: A Portrait, que examina en profundidad su proceso creativo, así como una extensa biografía de Philip Watson, Beautiful Dreamer: The Guitarist Who Changed The Sound of American Music.
