Synopsis

Album Description

Jazz pianist/composer Uri Caine adapts works by the great classical composers, applying a wide range of musical styles from jazz and soul to klezmer and drum `n' bass. A fascinating sound experience features great solos by Joyce Hammann, Chris Speed, Ralph Alessi, NguyÃªn LÃª (his debut recording with Caine), DJ Olive, Drew Gress, Jim Black, and Caine himself. Mozart lives on!

CD Reviews

Soaring

J. J. Love | 10/15/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I agree that the music is phenomonal. The entire ensemble works well both with and off each other, sharing the wide but focused canvas of musical possibility, without getting in each other's way. I also like the return to the solo Caine throughout the disc. For me, the packaging material matches the soaring heights of art attained on the disc. I like the feel of real paper and embossed craft and the tasteful abstract art inside as opposed to your run-of-the-mill hard breakable plastic--there is nothing plastic about URi's Caine's music and his packaging should, as it does, reflect that. Hats off to Winter & Winter, and to the Trio."
