The godfather of the principle of crossover, fusion and the eclectic perspective that dominates music today, Gunther Schuller has been concerned with breaking down the barriers between jazz and classical music to create a new form which he described as "Third Stream". And his eclecticism is reflected in his many-sided career as player, composer, conductor, teacher and critic. Geoffrey Smith explores Schuller's career and the controversies it has generated, talking with jazz musicians Joe Lovano and George Russell , composers taught by Schuller, including Oliver Knussen , Mark-Anthony Turnage and Mike Gibbs , students from New England Conservatory in Boston, and music critics. Producer Jessica Isaacs
