ANDY BISKIN - DOGMENTAL

A traditional New Orleans frontline of clarinet, trumpet and trombone explores novelty soundtrack music ala Raymond Scott, while bringing fresh ideas to waltzes, ballads, marches and rags. Andy Biskin received a grant from Meet the Composer for a 1999 concert with the Jazz Composers Collective which combined his music and film work. This recording, featuring some of the hottest young leaders in jazz today, showcases his eclectic, sometimes humorous compositional style.
