Oregon w/ Moscow Tchaikovsky Symphony Orch.: Oregon In Moscow

by Todd S. Jenkins
Over the past 30 years the quartet Oregon have set the standard for acoustic chamber music that straddles the lines between jazz, New Age and classical.

Yet on Sync, Rothenberg performs with bassist-guitarist Jerome Harris and percussionist Samir Chatterjee for a jubilant set of sprightly works marked by ...
