"Creating this album with JBBG has enabled me to delve more
deeply into the concept of a new 'big band sound', starting
with the traditional instrumentation (augmented with cello,
synth and Theo Bleckmann/voice) and completely leaving behind
the traditional forms of big band composition. I have never
been moved to incorporate shout choruses, sax solis, or other
traditional big band arranging techniques - my inclination has
always been toward using the energy and power that are
inherent in a band of 18 musicians - appreciating the force of
18 musicians playing in unison or the subtle impact of having
the entire band whistling like a bird..."
