"Turn Of The Century" CD is about the passing of a torch from one turn ofthe century to the next. Throughout history, this passing has always been asignificant period of time - from the 1890s to the early 20th Century; fromthe 1990s to the dawn of the 21st Century - filled with melancholy for thepast and hope for new beginning.

Influences in art, music and architecture from the turn of the previouscentury are still experienced in many cities throughout the world. The 19thCentury European style architecture in New York City was a direct result ofthe desire to create an art and cultural center in America. New York Cityin particular, where many of the accompanying booklet's images are set,still lives with these influences.

Musically the 'Turn of The Century' CD is an eclectic blend of classical,20th century chamber music, jazz, poetry and many sights, sounds andexperiences that the art and cultural center of America has to offer.

Reflective in mood, the CD captures the character of these times when weconsider the past and the future coming together as one - The Turn of theCentury
