Plays the Music of Carla Bley

by Orchestra Jazz Siciliana

Overview

Carla Bley's sometimes comical, always compelling compositions provide the material for this respectful repertory album from The Orchestra Jazz Sicilina. The roster features mainly European musicians, and the album emphasizes band interaction and ensemble execution rather than solo skills and individual voices. ~ Ron Wynn
