Chris Potter writes: "Jim McNeely has always been one of my favorite composer/ arrangers, so I was thrilled to get the chance to work with him on his piece inspired by one of my favorite compositions, the Rite of Spring. He also arranged some of my music in a way that made me hear my own compositions in a fresh way. The band was a total delight to work with and played beautifully throughout, and I'm very proud of the results."
