That was pretty sweet. I wonder if there's sheet music for that, or if they just came up with that. It gives me ideas.... 3nodding

They came up with that. The violinist with the crazy hair, Taro Hakase, is a really famous japanese violinist. He plays all kinds of styles, and even has ompositions of his own.

But yeah, it does give ideas... whee

It's nice.

But not quite as new and innovative and you are making it out to be. It's been done before. Claude Bolling wrote a a couple suites for flute and jazz piano trio back in the 70s, and Art Tatum did of jazz piano versions of a lot of classical stuff pre-1950:

Rhapsody in Blue and American in Paris (Gershwin) were written in 1924 and 1928, respectively:

And Berstein wrote his Symphonic Dances based on Westside Story in 1961. Here's an excerpt:
