798.0. "Bolling-Rampal Suite #2 -- Superb!" by PARSEC::PESENTI (JP) Thu Jun 18 1987 08:26

I recently purchased Claude Bolling's "Suite No 2 for Flute and Jazz Piano 
Trio"  with Jean-Pierre Rampal.  

Excellent!  An unusual blend of classical and jazz styles.  

I have one question, though.  When I first looked at the album, I said to 
myself "...Trio...?  Let's see, #1 flute, #2 piano, #3 ?"  Upon closer 
inspection I noticed that #3 was bass, and #4 percussion!  What's the scoop?
Are 4 person trios common, or is there a rule that says you don't have to 
count something?

The title says "Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio".  It is therefore
quite simple to count:  The flute is soloist; the trio is Piano, Base,
and Percussion.
