Viva Caruso
Viva Caruso is one of Joe Lovano's "most ambitious and enjoyable recordings".[3] Inspired by the legendary Italian tenor, Enrico Caruso, Lovano deftly, yet directly, applies orchestral melodies and figures in different manners to create a beautifully meditative collection of music. The album features several different tracks, each focusing on a different interpretation of classical music in the jazz realm.

gollark: What allows that?
gollark: With a keyboard you could even use it just like AE2 (mouse interaction).
gollark: Also, yet another cool idea!The overlay glasses now allow item icons. This could allow a remotely accessible (via introspection modules) with *actual item icons* instead of just text.
gollark: Ideally secure ones.
gollark: There's already a bunch of terminal streaming protocols available, right? I'm interested in upgrading ARC to in-world-positioned 3D screens transmitted from a beacon thing.
