Jim and Paul play Glenn and Ludwig is a jazz album inspired by Glenn Gould's favorite Beethoven music, with the support of the Glenn Gould Estate, and performed by the Jim Gelcer / Paul Hoffert Trio. It features themes from Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, Symphony No. 5, Piano Concerto No. 5, and Pathetique Sonata integrated into carefully crafted new arrangements. The new and old are seamlessly woven together into virtuoso jazz trio performances with frequent improvisations and occasional supportive orchestration. Jazz and classical music fans alike will play these tracks over and over, mining more of their musical gold with each listen. The Jim Gelcer / Paul Hoffert Trio features Jim Gelcer, Paul Hoffert, along with George Koller, and guest appearances by jazz flutist Bill McBirnie. Previous collaborations by Jim Gelcer and Paul Hoffert have enthralled audiences and listeners at jazz festivals and clubs and on their inaugural jazz album "How High The Bird". Their separate musical excursions include award-winning rock, Kirtan (Indian), orchestral, and soundtrack recordings and performances.
