A very interesting set from the Wayne Horvitz European Orchestra, exploring the full scale, range and colour of the instrumentation, and making a strong case for free music rooted in big band and swing. Definitely one to return to frequently.
Another great broadcast from the Italian radio station RAI3, one of the most interesting broadcasters of jazz & improvised music.
