Kew Rhone

Flying home from Cartagena I had my iPod and decided to play one of my favorite albums of all time. Recorded about 40 years ago, it is called Kew Rhone. This is a truly avant garde jazz-classical work. To me, it is a desert island choice for the top 25 albums I would listen to over and over again. Back in the late 1980's and early 1990's I wrote two quasi-classical pieces that I called "Jazz Symphonies." I entitled them the New York Jazz Symphony (1987) and the California-Oregon Jazz Symphony (1991). These were feeble attempts at what is the ultimate Jazz Symphony, Kew Rhone.
