专辑简介

Jazz musicians play multiple styles of music throughout their careers. Most of the time, the kind of music presented depends on who is listening. A tremendous audience has accumulated for Rock and Blues styles , largely because of their easy listening sounds. The beat, the chords and the melodies are clear and readily appreciated. Bop, progressive jazz, can be more difficult to understand; however, the more one listens to it, the more familiar one becomes to its innovative sounds and content, and the more potential there is for understanding and enjoyment. “BOP ROCK BLUES” contains the musical ingredients of all three styles with an emphasis on dance rhythms. “BOPTRONICS”, developed by George Braith, is a method of using modern recording techniques to produce any kind of instrumentation. Unlike Midi, “BOPTRONICS” is played in real time. The Braithophone, an invention of George Braith, is a woodwind instrument that produces two sounds at once.
