Style

A colour and a typography made for each other.

Colour

In place of the style's accent, in every theme. Deeper by day, softer by night.

Ils en parlent

  • I know of nothing in Ravel so dextrous in treatment as the varied solos in the middle of the ebullient Hot and Bothered and nothing in Stravinsky more dynamic than the final section.

    Constant LambertMusic Ho! A Study of Music in Decline, 1934

  • Now there, to me, is the most perfect band in existence.

    Clare FischerDownBeat, 19 October 1967, on “Agra” from the Far East Suite

  • He just seems to have a sixth sense about things turning out so good.

    Louie BellsonDownBeat, “Blindfold Test”, around 1964
