Album Notes

In 1979, I formed the first of a series of ensembles, using a rhythm section and instruments normally associated with classical music. This group is the 4th incarnation and also the finest.

The CD features: Jeff Raheb - guitars, Mark Feldman - violin, Michael Rabinowitz - bassoon, Charlie Haynes - sax, flute, Neil Conaty & Dave Richards - bass, Chris Hughes - drums, Guillermo Franco - percussion
