Hello all!  Thanks for stopping by!  My goal in music is to make something that is fresh and in the moment, like my heroes.  Many of the pieces here are spur of the moment improvisations, where there was no discussion about what we were about to play.  The joy here, is the group interplay and the many surprises that occur on the fly.  Musicians listening closely to each other and responding.  You could consider this, sped up composition.  Thanks to all the great musicians for their creativity on these recordings! Hope you enjoy!!
