The world changes. Society changes. Technology changes. Resources change. And either our infrastructure changes to take advantage of that potential and DRIVE those very changes, or we as a nation and a people will be left behind by those with the daring to invest in their own better future.

“Bullen explores the notion of “gesture” as the essential idea of a piece. Reflecting his interest in Jazz, much of the work has a quasi-improvisatory feel. But many of these seemingly free gestures are, in fact, carefully controlled.” - Robert Adelson, from the 1999 CD entitled The Solati Trio
