Industry Reviews ...Puricelli claims to seek a `new jazz conception for the next century,' and to the extent that he writes for a new age, he successfully realizes his aim....[the] music...is moody and ethereal as befits the conception, but inside Puricelli plays with swing, power and an innate jazz sensibility.
