Jazz Clasical?

I studied piano a lot in college, and of course have always sought out new composers and music. I am so glad, however, that I continue to find new composers who have written copious amounts of piano music. One is Nikolai Kapustin, who was a musician who so wanted to be a jazz guy. Unfortunate thing was, however, that he was so steeped in classical training that he couldn't overcome the rigid training of "play the notes" to become an improv jazz performer (I know a thing or two about that). So, he started writing jazz like one would classical music -- by notating every note! Here's a great performance of his music by Marc Andre-Hamelin, an amazing pianist and great proponent of modern classical piano music. Enjoy!
