His own Jewish heritage, his classical and jazz training, and his interest in electronics combine in ambitious hybrids that are often challenging but always inventive. Caine grew up in an intellectual, open-minded family in Philadelphia. His father, a law professor at Temple University, and his mother, a poet and professor at Drexel, ensured the best musical education possible for their son, having him study with French expatriate pianist Bernard Peiffer. Over their four years of study together, Peiffer taught Caine not only piano technique but the possibilities of music. Each week, Caine brought a new composition to his lesson; teacher and pupil then deconstructed and reformed its melody, harmonies, and structure into entirely different directions. Along with listening to Herbie Hancock and Oscar Peterson, this rigorous study with Peiffer introduced Caine to jazz theory. Caine was already performing at jazz clubs around Philadelphia with artists like Mickey Roker and Bootsie Barnes when he began studies with composer George Rochberg in Penn States University Scholars Program. Choosing his own path of study, Caine took classes in music, literature, and other interests for a diverse-but-grounded program.This well-rounded approach to music culminated in the aptly named debut album Sphere Music, released in 1992. Caines spontaneity and technical prowess as a musician and composer combine on the album, making it a jazzy tour of moods and styles. Sphere Music also inaugurates Caines collaboration with clarinetist Don Byron. Together, the two have played everything from Thelonious Monks Round Midnight to klezmer music to modern classical, with Byrons ensemble Semaphore.Caine followed Sphere Music with 1996s Toys, 1997s Primal Light, and 1999s I Went Out This Morning Over the Countryside, all of which feature his signature blend of fluid, visionary postmodernism. The late 90s brought international attention to Caines projects reworking, reinterpreting, and reinventing the works of classical composers for the Winter & Winter label. Paolo Fresu於1961年出生於意大利薩丁尼亞島，80年代初跑去義大利中部的Siena參加爵士樂研習課程，在哪里遇到了他的老師兼偶像Enrico Rava，隨后小號演奏技巧突飛猛進，不消幾年便成為意大利爵士圈子里最活躍的樂手之一。Fresu的小號音色聽來疏離飄邈，這是受到Rava的影響，當然也是來自Miles Davis的啟發。而說到了Fresu的活躍，截至目前20多年的演奏生涯里曾參與過超過130張以上的專輯錄音，他現在也是當年Siena爵士研習課程的指導老師，每年更有超過一半的時間住在法國參與各大爵士音樂節演出，音樂領域橫跨前衛與傳統爵士，甚至電子與融合音樂的世界里也得以見其蹤跡，確實活躍。其音樂呈現出一種后現代但線條分明的輪廓，五重奏多年來合作所建立起的默契都在里面，充滿深度卻不難理解的演奏，值得聆賞
