Perry Morris Robinson (born September 17 1938) is an American free jazz clarinettist, and the son of composer and folk singer Earl Robinson.
Robinson was born in New York City. He did some of his early work with Henry Grimes on The Call (an association revived since Grimes's re-emergence). His uniquely effervescent tone is the result of his unusual double embouchure. Since 1973 he has been working with Jeanne Lee and Gunter Hampel's Galaxy Dream Band. More recently, he has worked with William Parker on Bob's Pink Cadillac and several discs on the CIMP label. From 1975 until 1977 he was member of a band called Clarinet Contrast around German clarinet player Theo Jörgensmann. He plays in a free jazz and world music trio along with tabla player Badal Roy and bassist Ed Schuller, son of the composer and musicologist Gunther Schuller. This group can be heard on their CD Raga Roni. He also plays with Muruga Booker and in the Global Village Ceremonial Band, and has played with them at the Starwood Festival, SpiritDrum Festival, and RhythmFest with Sikiru Adepoju, Halim El-Dabh, Jeff Rosenbaum and Badal Roy. His autobiography, Perry Robinson: The Traveler, was published in 2003.
