AllMusic[3]

The AllMusic review by David R. Adler said "With Sidewalk Meeting, saxophonist Ted Nash premieres a new, highly unconventional group called Odeon. ... Odeon seamlessly integrates the different sides of Nash's musical personality (he's a member of both the maverick Jazz Composers Collective and the more conservative Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra), and that's just the kind of bridge-building that modern jazz needs".[3] On All About Jazz, Mark Corotto observed "Nash, a member of the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, arranged this unique blend of music and instrumentation. His bass clarinet winds around the plunger trombone of Wycliffe Gordon, Miri Ben-Ari’s violin and William Schimmel’s accordion throughout. They open with Debussy mined from New Orleans by way of an Argentinean tango (read swinging). Nash whets your appetite for the possibilities of this band, then delivers".[4] In JazzTimes, Aaron Steinberg wrote "On Sidewalk Meeting, Odeon demonstrates such a strong sound identity that when they cover Ellington’s “Amad” (from The Far East Suite), Monk’s “Bemsha Swing” and even Debussy’s “Premier Rhapsody,” they make it sound as if the material were written specifically for them".[5]

Personnel
gollark: Your thermostat will also be part of several different botnets, and upload your temperature settings to China.
gollark: Realistically they'll just not have displays and you'll use CLOUD™ instead to access them.
gollark: In 20 years even the little display on your thermostat will be 8K, and need the future equivalent of an RTX 2080 to drive it.
gollark: Which defeats the point of a higher res display.
gollark: The extra pixel density just results in useless battery drain so it has moar pixel.
