“…The idea of mixing “blue grass” and symphonic music in a graceful way was a challenge but also an opportunity for a wonderful artistic experience. I should mention some of the great musicians who contributed to enhance the different scenes: Ray Brown on bass, the late Howard Roberts and Tommy Tedesco on guitars, and Tom Morgan on harmonica. It is unfair not to mention everyone but I do remember each one of them who added their artistry and professionalism to the excitement.”
