| Ciao Ed,
I just picked up the album while strolling the streets of "gotham". Very cool stuff. It's funny how scholastic the classical world is. Scholastic in the sense that there is such strict order and sense of tradition. Why can't someone use classical melodies and pieces the way a jazz standard is used? Why is classical literature so sacred?
Alot to think about...
On lighter note checked out Dave Douglas at FONT. They did all new music from his upcoming release. Very very cool. There was alot going on it was firey, playful maybe even a little aggresive. If anyone gets to check out his upcoming tour check it out.
