Semi-big-band sounds with some modern classical tweaks. There's a '60s-TV retro sound to some of the full-ensemble passages, and traces of modern classical ideas in the writing. Tracks 3-5 are based on bits of Miles Davis' "Birth of the Cool" and carry a more retro, symphonic sound (Gunther Schuller arrangements). The other tracks are closer to modern straight jazz, with the occasional strange touch in the composing (1,11) . FCC clean. 1- Ah, strange classically-influenced lines. Moves into straight bebop-combo stuff for the solos. 2- Mid/slow feel, relaxing swing 3- Swaying and graceful, pretty. 4- Slow symphonic intro, then a jumping swingy piece 5- Cooled-down swing, pleasant and straightforward 6- Burly, bluesy tenor sax, midtempo. Mood gets happier. 7- Perky mid/fast. Complicated, staggery intro. A couple of free-madness moments. 8- Relaxed mid/fast, a casual sound. Clarinet lead. 9- Mid/fast straight swing, some fun loose soloing 10- Fast but kept at a low-flying buzz; some cool solos 11- Midtempo dissonant swing, almost like patterns of speech | ||
