about

Rent Romus' Life's Blood Ensemble

"The dramatic music alternates worked-out sections with intense improvising, is consistently unpredictable, explores many moods and emotions, and always has the potential to become explosive."
- Scott Yanow, L.A. Jazz Scene

"Indeed, Romus and associates have reached a milestone with this top-notch outing that defies strict categorizations when considering bridges between free improvisation and modern progressive jazz. It's a seamless incorporation of the best of many worlds."
