The fusion or streaming of French Impressionistic music (harmonic color palettes/schemes) with traditional jazz sensibilities (jazz rhythm, improvisations and instrumentation. This streaming is most evident in the compositions of Aslan’s Act, Narnian Knight, Dayacks, Reflection and My Elizabeth.The harmonic and orchestration colors in these compositions and arrangements emit an emotional charged aural experience.
