What I'm listening to today: "Concerto for Cello and Wind Orchestra" (Overture), Friedrich Gulda

I don't know much about Gulda, but apparently his career was marked by a desire to work in both classical music but also jazz (back in an era when jazz was still cutting edge and/or illegal). This 1980 piece feels like he was asked to compose a concerto but he just really, really wanted to make funk music. This slaps. This cellist is fucking shredding
