		RON CARTER: Well, I noticed that this high school orchestra would send out groups of string players to play for various functions, whether it be an educators convention or a little social thing down the street, and they never called a Black cello player.
		RON CARTER: One of the things that has peaked just on this record, which kind of surprised me actually is that a lot of Bill Frisell fans have called and want to know why is he on this record.
		RON CARTER: I think the first thing a people or group would have to do is insist that it be as part of the curriculum from kindergarten on as sports is. Until the educational system on that level makes music important, it will never be important to those young people.

	The Ron Carter Nonet: Eight Plus - PopMatters Music Review
		Ron Carter's nonet is unique if for nothing else but the featured instrumentation: piccolo bass, piano, bass, drums, percussion, and four cellos.
		For the first 30 seconds, Carter's piccolo bass and Maleson's bass are in lock step, simultaneously establishing the bebop-ish melody and rhythm, plucking in front of the sudden accents of piano and high hat, as the cellos provide reinforcing layers of counterpoint.
		Then, without fanfare, Carter saunters off on his own as the rest of his band mates hold the fort; for the next three minutes, it is pure pleasure to listen to his deft touch.

	Boston.com / A&E / Music / Ron Carter happy just to put down a base
		Carter relishes controlling the flow of the music, but his musicianship is so profound that the conflict between selflessness and ego disappears like a Cheshire cat's grin.
		Still, Carter has been so ubiquitous and consistent that he seems to be in danger of being taken for granted, at least by the critics.
		Carter is easy to identify by his elegantly rich tone, double stops, and the legato strut of his walking lines.

	Borders - Feature - Jazz Am-bass-ador: A Conversation with Veteran Bassist Ron Carter
		Two-time Grammy winner Ron Carter remains one of the jazz world's most esteemed emissaries, and his role as a frontman is all the more remarkable when you consider that his stock in trade is the bass, more typically an accompanying instrument than a principal voice.
		And after 19 years, Carter is retiring in 2002 from his position as distinguished professor of music at City College of New York.
		In this interview, Carter discusses Pettiford's legacy, decries the lack of music programs in public schools, and compares the different skills needed to perform in a classical setting versus a jazz context.

		But Carter was confident Malone and Miller could handle the demands of the date, especially since he had previously worked with both on their individual recordings.
		Carter’s studio goal was to mirror a club setting and play the songs (three covers, four Carter compositions and one each by Malone and Miller) on a continuum, taking few breaks and avoiding distractions.
		Carter also contributed the carnival-vibed “Parade” (originally penned for a recording date with Joe Henderson, Chick Corea and Tony Williams) and the slow lyrical “A Theme in 3/4 Time” (a ballad written for Henderson which features Miller’s classical-like piano statements and Malone’s feathery runs).

		On this album he heads a fairly standard quintet that features two significant innovations: Carter himself plays a half-size piccolo bass (which he uses mostly as a melody instrument, leaving the actual bass parts to the impressive Leon Maleson) and the quintet is further augmented by three cellists.
		The intonation problems that marred Carter's cello playing in the early '60s with pianist Mal Waldron have followed him onto the piccolo bass, but his humor, energy, and inventiveness are enough to put the music across despite the occasional tuning problems.
		The cellos are a nice touch, and their chordal accompaniments give Carter's compositions an unusual and pleasing texture.
