Search - Bruce Arnold :: A Few Dozen

On his latest CD, A Few Dozen, guitarist and composer Bruce Arnold presents a tightly knit set of tracks based on twentieth century classical structures that run from upbeat swing to lyrical ballads to rumba clave. In addition, the music is enriched by electronic sounds that create atmosphere and orchestral density. In on the fun and rounding out the trio are Ratzo B. Harris on acoustic bass and Tony Moreno on percussion and drums. Arnold writes The more I listened to the works of various masters, the more I felt that the elements they were working with could refresh and expand the possibilities of jazz.
