Notes:
Shorty Rogers' connection to Middle Eastern themes in music was not a prominent aspect of his career. His work primarily focused on cool jazz and West Coast jazz styles. However, as an innovative composer and arranger, Rogers may have occasionally incorporated elements from various musical traditions into his work. Any influence of Middle Eastern music in Rogers' compositions would likely have been subtle and integrated into his overall jazz style rather than being an explicit focus on Middle Eastern themes.
