TEO MACERO is an amazing man of music. Composer, arranger, player and producer, he has worked intimately with some of the greatest figures in the history of jazz-- Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, Charles Mingus and Thelonius Monk-- in the creation of some of their most enduring works.

To have Macero at the helm of his own label, with what that implies in terms of creative freedom, is indeed something to look forward to.
- Dan Morgenstern

  • A classic of third stream music
    author: geoff wills

    This album is an excellent showcase for the composing, producing and playing talents of Teo Macero. It is a classic of third stream music, blending elements of 20th century classical music and jazz very successfully.
