Even though I don’t consider myself a jazz musician as many of us who mostly live in the classical or other worlds of mu: Tove and appreciate Jazz. In the spirit of this musical form, I wanted to create pieces which had, in addition to an offbeat rhythmic structure and a more elaborate and lush harmonic scheme, the sense of freedom that Jazz offers. And [encourage all who play these pieces to embellish further, jastas any improviser would, once the tune was introduced in its purest form, With each tune I chose different ways (ie change of fimesignature, etc.) to subtly (and notso subtly!) change details while retaining the wonderful character of the originals. So whether you’ rea Classical music buff or a Jazz, enthusiast you will find something to love!
