The Jazz Kamerata

Take outstanding jazz soloists, some of the genre's greatest standards and then set them in a chamber jazz format surrounded with strings and woodwinds. That is the concept behind The Jazz Kamerata. Carlos Franzetti creates a sublime chamber jazz genre, a unique hybrid sound that respects both jazz and classical idioms. His subtle and tasteful choice of classic jazz standards is the key element that makes this recording both luscious and inventive.
