Before venturing into twelve-tone serial music, Wilson developed his career cultivating extreme awareness of harmony and counter-point through the study of Jazz and derivations. He has deeply studied and further developed the chord-melody technique, personally passed on by Joe Pass to him. While not as daring as his twelve-note work, his tonal accomplishments already provide the listener with a wide array of melodic combinations and remarkably original improvisation. How do you think these songs compare with his Jazz Solos? Can you notice the hints of color and paradigm breaking musical arrangements piercing through?
