Posium Pendasem is an album by American jazz double bassist William Parker, which was recorded live during the Workshop Freie Musik '98 at The Akademie der Künste in Berlin, and released on the German FMP label.
The performance documents an expanded edition of the band In Order To Survive, a quintet with Rob Brown on alto sax, Cooper-Moore on piano, Susie Ibarra on drums, and newcomer Assif Tsahar on tenor sax and bass clarinet. This lineup played a piece on the previous album by the band, The Peach Orchard. The last composition of the suite, titled “Another Angel Goes Home”, is a requiem for the drummer Denis Charles, who died a few days before.[1]
