	Paul Wertico "I couldn't have done it without SONAR"
		Seven time Grammy Award winner, Paul Wertico is a world-class drummer who has worked for years with such luminaries as Pat Metheny, Larry Coryell, Jazz singer Kurt Elling, “word jazz”; creator Ken Nordine, fusion violinist Jerry Goodman, new age music pioneer Paul Winter, and the legendary Eastern European rock band SBB, among many others.
		Ultimately it is in the context of his own renegade groups that Wertico has revealed the most about his musicality and philosophy of drumming while also pushing the envelope on risk-taking.
		PW: The album you're referring to is my daughter Talia Wertico and her 8 year old friend Allegra Rosenberg's new CD entitled Songs For The Swing Set.

	The Sound of Two Hands Talking - Lessons with Paul Wertico
		Paul went on to say that his primary concern has to be for the "shape" of the song he's playing.
		Like most drummers, Paul has to provide the heartbeat for the band that he's in, and with musicians of the caliber in the Pat Metheny group, you need to have a strong command of your instrument to be able to drive the band.
		Paul's approach is deceptively simple - he teaches his students to extend their ideas of how drums can sound, and then gives them the tools to mold these added colors into complex and creative new musical forms.

	[No title]
		Pat Metheny's Paul Wertico is a bundle of contradictions: a highly exploratory drummer whose solo album is far from a chops-fest; a sophisticated accompanist who never took a lesson; a mainstream musician with avant-garde tendencies.
		But Wertico has always had quite a few other irons in the fire, and right now the focus of his attention is on Earwax Control, the audacious, ultra-improvisatory trio he began some twenty years ago with bassist/guitarist Jeff Czech and keyboardist Gordon James.
		Nevertheless, Paul presses on with boundless enthusiasm for this outré project, as if the stuff were recorded yesterday.

		SteroNucleosis is not credited to the Paul Wertico Trio, but there is no doubt that this is the follow-up to Don't Be Scared Anymore that we have been waiting for.
		The drummer/composer also brings up to the fore some additional elements that surely result from his listening to musics from all around the world - thus, the Chinese or tribal percussion prominently featured on a couple of tracks.
		Paul Wertico's long association with Pat Metheny and Larry Coryell has allowed him to develop a kin relationship with guitar players, which probably explains the success of his partnership with one of Chicago's most incendiary guitarists, John Moulder, who makes some significant contributions to this session.
