READ THIS PLEASE:

The selections in this collection contain hidden themes which, once detected, will guide the listener to an understanding of the underlying structure of the piece. For example, the hidden thematic material of "Up At Wynton's Place," our tribute to the famous trumpeter, is taken from one of his outstanding recorded solos. Fans of the trumpeter will no doubt recognize the riff and follow its metamorphosis in the selection. If you have difficulty detecting the themes in these pieces, forget about it.
