Illuminati: 2 Facets by the composer/contrabass guitarist for septet and 15-piece band including downtown’s finest string, wind, keyboard, and percussion players. The music is an amalgam of 19th and 20th Century chamber and jazz writing with touches of swing, ragtime, pulse, ska, reggae, and funk rhythms plus the improv talents of musicians. Gallant was an Emmy nominee for sound design on a daytime soap and has also worked with John Zorn. His disc with Illuminati is on Scratch.
