Both/And - Solo Electro-Acoustic Adventures

Denny Zeitlin has proven over his career that he is a constant experimenter and ever interested in refining his position as a musical innovator. Both/And is a tremendous example of what a gifted musical mind can achieve with a thoughtful approach and the advances of technology. On Both/And, Zeitlin has recorded a collection of compositions that were created by overdubbing element upon element to make lushly arranged pieces of music featuring keyboards, woodwinds, percussion, etc. The only acoustic instrument appearing on the album is his Steinway grand piano. Zeitlin invokes the spirit of Weather Report on the string laden opening piece, 'Meteorology'. 'Dawn' is a reflective piece featuring a duet between bass and strings. The aggressively percussive 'Tiger, Tiger' is in a tricky 15/8 time signature and is inspired by a William Blake poem. A beautiful solo piano leads into 'Kathryn s Song' which then blossoms into a full quintet, all parts by Zeitlin. Beginning subtly on acoustic piano, 'Dystopian Uprising' is an intriguing piece taking inspiration from 20th century classical music, pinning the piano versus a string section. 'Charango Dream' is a South American infused trio of flute, bass and vibes. 'Monk-y Business Revisited' is a suite that Zeitlin recorded with the assistance of synthesizer pioneer Dr. Pat Gleeson and partly in his studio in Los Angeles. Zeitlin returns to his composition 'Monk-y Business' originally recorded in 1989, and builds on it with sounds of a full orchestra.
