26:05 Share

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with veteran jazz guitarist and spiritual improviser Tisziji Muñoz. In this revealing conversation, we dive into his prolific career and latest work as a member of The Quantum Blues Quartet on the 2025 album Quantum Blues, featuring longtime friend and famed bandleader Paul Shaffer.

Recorded in a single day with no charts or pre-written arrangements, Quantum Blues is a true exercise in musical intuition and collective flow. Tisziji—who has been a powerful creative force since the 1970s—is the one who suggested the formation of this group alongside his wife. Paul Shaffer, who has considered Tisziji a mentor since they met in 1969, brought the ensemble together for this singular session.

From his unique guitar voice and spiritual approach to improvisation, to his long-standing influence on major musicians like Shaffer and Pharoah Sanders, Tisziji’s story is one of deep resonance in the jazz world.
