"Blue Hour" is the sixth and final track of "R.B. & Friends," a large-scale, multi-ensemble collection of student jazz compositions/arrangements in an informal but high-level collaboration between a NY-based jazz composer and his peers at Manhattan School of Music. All music written and self-recorded within three days.

This melody came to me when I knew I wanted to capture, in some way, the serene moment of July sunsets in New York.
