True, this collection of jazz- influenced concert pieces offers some pretty established stuff -- Gershwin's ``Rhapsody in Blue,'' Stravinsky's ``Ebony Concerto,'' Milhaud's ``Creation of the World.'' But it also includes some nice oddities like Hindemith's ``Ragtime'' (built, like a Modern Jazz Quartet riff, on a Bach fugue), a section of David Raksin's score to ``The Bad and the Beautiful,'' featuring that composer's patented lonely-sax-from-the-next- room kind of sound, and especially, Gerge Antheil's crazy little 1925 ``Jazz Symphony,'' which, though it's neither jazz nor a symphony, is still a pretty cool specimen.
