 Rating: - Virtuosi by Burton & OzoneVirtuosi I am thrilled with this CD.

Each piece mirrors the harmonies of both classical and jazz, through the musicianship of each artists...much care has been taken to present various tempo and moods...from Latin, Brazilian, Swing, Tango leaning toward polished styles that will amaze ...
