about

If Harper's work, in his own words, evokes "contemplation, humor, and the urge to dance, as [it] reveals influences from Ethiopia to New Orleans and from Brahms to James Brown," then his composition "Tore Up" falls on the dancing, James Brown side of the equation. This is no static groove, however. There are subtle metric shifts and turns of harmonic emphasis, not to mention absorbing solo flights from Landrus, Harper, and Kordis.
