"There is some really nice music here,
from the Jazzy things of Alec Wilder,
a nice new work of mine, to the music of Black-American composer Ulysses Kay."
Released: November 17, 2021
From the recording artist and composer:
RB: "Most of this music was recorded in 2018."
"Wilder's 6x4 no. 4 was recorded February 18, 2021 which was at the end of a North American Freeze. Today (Nov. 16, 2021) is release day for this, and we have white-out bilzard conditions. We have had snow on the ground since Remembrance Day, and I played a cold Last Post performance after standing for 15 minutes in the wind."
"This recording was recorded . . . and it is released to the public."
About the Music:
I have done my due diligence to pay royalties for the music.
