As we discover more and more of his music and as we again can hear on the present recording, Kapustin developed his style subtly and steadily. He went with the times. As the music that influenced him changed, so did Kapustin's. The development of Big Band Jazz can be traced in his work. In that sense Kapustin never settled on one style (within the parameters of his unique fusion of jazz and classical, granted) but remained flexible about the musical material and the way he related it to the orchestra.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Variations for piano solo and big band, Op. 3 \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Toccata for piano solo and big band, Op. 8 \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Concerto No. 2 for piano and orchestra, Op. 14~I.
