This jazz original takes a signature lick of Dexter Gordon's and works it into prominence within two contrasting movements. The first movement is lyrical and subtle, with a steady, patterned accompaniment created to facilitate ballad-tempo solos (written or improvised). The second movement uses offbeat rhythms to displace the beat. Titles: Blue * Boppin'.

A Klezmer Wedding is a set of four dances, newly-composed but based on traditional models. The Doina is an expressive chant for three successive soloists; it twists and turns with the wailing lament of a shepherd's pipe. Next follows the Hora, a slow Rumanian dance in three with a mood that reflects the wedding's solemn vows. A Chusidl, with a moderate speed and bouncy rhythms, gets the party to the dance floor. The concluding Freylach (happy, but still in a minor key!) takes the bride, groom, and guests to the edge of frenzy.

Titles: Chusidl * Doina * Hora * Freylach.
