Rap and strings and piano and sax
Unboxed Doll starts with the sort of typical snappy snare and bass patternand a violin lineall harsh scrapes and layered sounds an octave apart.Twenty-five seconds in the freeform jazz violin part begins, followed closely by a lush solo string part at forty seconds, intertwined with more of the same jazzy violin sounds.
Apart from the one rap verse, there are no vocals on this piece, allowing complete focus on the strength of musicianship and variety of genres covered. Each instrument has around thirty seconds or so in the limelight, which still allows the player to showcase the instrument’s abilities.It is perfectly possible to have such a mix of styles in one piece without it feeling contrived or rushed.
