Under Rousseau's Moon
UNDER ROUSSEAUíS MOON finds arranger and orchestrator GIL GOLDSTEIN
reinventing works by JACO PASTORIUS, GIL EVANS, and selected members of
his illustrious ensemble: DON ALIAS, RICHARD BONA, RANDY BRECKER,
MIKE MAINIERI, CHRIS POTTER, and THE ZEBRA COAST STRING TRIO. The
Rousseauís painting, The Sleeping Gypsy.
GOLDSTEIN, a first-call collaborator who counts Jaco and Gil Evans as his two
major influences, has created an all-star ensemble liberating known works in a
style both ethereal and bold. The result is beautiful music - a masterful tone
painting highlighted by emotion and artistic shadings one only associates with
high art. Under Rousseauís Moon is a haunting work, illuminating GIL GOLD-
STEIN and his unparalleled talent for casting compositions and musicians in a
special light - the light of dreams.
