Say's arrangement of Paganini's Caprices can be seen as a form of "jazification" of the original material. He maintains the core melodic and harmonic structures of the pieces, but infuses them with jazz rhythms, harmonies, and phrasing. The results are fascinating, as Say's arrangements create a dialogue between the original classical material and the improvisational, syncopated feel of jazz.
