Yes, his whole point was to Improvise.
The whole piece is like a written Improv anyway, IMO...
He was great on the 2 Concerts I played.
And some of the really fast, technical stuff he did better and cleaner than MTT,
and 2 others, one a French Pianist ( whose name I forget, but someone you know ), and Jeffery Khane.
Ozone was using a new VERY expensive Yamaha Piano.
He liked it so much he bought one.
Check out "Virtuosi", with Gary Burton and Ozone.
All Classical Themes they arranged, and improvised on.
He also wore a very nice silk shirt, classy, and in keeping with Pops Concerts, nothing Flashy.
