Allmusic[4]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow noted "Some of the music is quite romantic (particularly "Interlude" and "Opus in Pastels") and the renditions of such tunes as "Concerto to End All Concertos," "Collaboration," and "Artistry in Rhythm" certainly sound much different than the originals. A successful and often-haunting effort, well worth exploring".[4]

Personnel

gollark: Admittedly this is not incredibly *useful* in that it doesn't really open any previously nonexistent possibilities, but people asked for redirects so I assume they do want this, and it wasn't hard to add.
gollark: It's also case and spacing-insensitive.
gollark: No, it's bee.
gollark: Well, you might want to put a link to the page "Bees" in the middle of a sentence saying something like "the best kind of bee is an apiaristic bee". But `the best kind of [[bees|bee]] is an apiaristic bee` looks slightly bad. So if you give the "Bees" page the name "Bee" too, it looks nicer.
gollark: (it should be simple enough using the existing fuzzy search infrastructure)
