Bread and Circuses

Bread and Circuses is a live album by composer Graham Collier accompanied by the Collective featuring two suites performed in Australia and released on the Jazzprint label in 2002. Reception Allmusic said "Graham Collier has built a considerable legacy as a sophisticated composer of considerable depth, and this release builds on that foundation with further evidence of his extraordinary talents ... The Australian Collective acquits itself well, with powerful contributions from many players and tightly focused ensemble performances. For breadth of composition, strong improvisations, and complex, largely conventional writing with a slightly leftward tint, there is very little around that competes with Graham Collier at his best, and this album is among his finest".
