The purpose for performing music with my group, „Percussion Discussion“ has always been solely, to express my personal musical vision, within an ensemble or orchestration of my choosing, along with a repetoire of my choosing. A concert with „Percussion Discussion“ could be any of a number of possibilities ranging from solo percussion, to a big band of traditional size and orchestration. In 2006 made a personel decision to celebrate the musical legacy of drummer extraordinaire, Elvin Jones in my „Percussion Discussion“ projects through 2011, and the choice of these players allow me to realize that project to its highest levels of musical achievership for „Percussion Discussion“. On this evening we are going to feature the great Jean Toussaint, an Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers alumni and a world recognized tenor player. (Howard Curtis, Graz 2010)
