The synth allows me to breathe with woodwind and brass players and opens up phrasing possibilities not possible with standard guitar.

Interview, 26-June-2000, with Daniel Jaffe ... a writer and Reviews Editor for Classic CD, the British classical music magazine. ... what is remarkable, though, is that he not only suggested that jazz was a worthwhile form of music to study, but he also praised authentic American jazz ...... the implications of Prokofiev's enthusiasm for jazz ... The strange colours of the so-called 'American' Overture, for instance, with its honky-tonk piano sound and predominant brass and woodwind colours sounds to me like a 'take' on the sound of a jazz combo, though not using its rhythmic style. Jazzy harmonies unmistakably appear in Romeo and Juliet and in his so-called 'War' sonatas. Basically it's a ... subtle and subliminal influence. . Prokofiev took opportunities to hear jazz during his many tours through the States certainly he brought plenty of jazz records back to Russia.
