Album Notes & Community Reviews
Retaining his group's unique chamber-music instrumentation鈥攑rominently featuring the cello alongside guitar and winds鈥擟hico Hamilton orchestrates a highly sophisticated West Coast session. The meticulous arrangements blur the lines between classical structure and jazz improvisation, propelled by Hamilton's remarkably subtle brushwork.
