A Bend InThe River continues bassist/composer/bandleader Roberto Occhipinti's explorations into musical synthesis. At first glance, the components seem disparate-chamber music, complicated rhythms, daring improvisation-but all makes sense given Occhipinti's singular background. Raised in Toronto, he was exposed to all types of music, from the Beatles and soul music to classical music and jazz. Occhipinti's sheer musical talent took him through to orchestral work, and then his adventurous nature returned him to jazz. Price: $15.98 |
