Wisdom

This piece is evidence of my musical fascination with modal improvisation, although technically it is not modal.  It is, in fact, a simple pattern of 13th chords. It is very similar to IMPRESSIVE (from Another Shot ©2010 Raymond M. Jozwiak) but while the latter leaned more toward the modal, two consecutive chromatic 13th chords only,  WISDOM actually contains six, arranged in a slightly more complex pattern.  And for some inexplicable reason, 13ths seem to require a 3/8 or 6/8 time signature for me. Note even the melodies of these musical cousins contain a family resemblance, although my WISDOM is not yet complete.

Can one's wisdom EVER be complete?

What's in a name?

The new video that greets you at the homepage of my website http://www.rayjozwiak.com is a performance of my composition entitled IMPRESSIVE, of which the studio version appears on my latest release ANOTHER SHOT (digital-download-only at)

The title, I would like to explain, is truly not a shameless display of unwarranted ego or any such thing, it is inspired by the John Coltrane piece IMPRESSIONS which has, likewise, a blues-based, modal structure not unlike many tunes on Miles' 'Kind of Blue', and subsequently the title is a corruption of that of its inspiration. (Maybe I should have called it BLUENESS?)
