Streams of Expression is the 20th studio album by American jazz musician Joe Lovano to be released on the Blue Note label.

The "Birth of the Cool Suite" was conducted by Gunther Schuller and utilizes melodic themes inspired by Miles Davis' work from his 1948 and 1950 nonet.

The album also features George Garzone, Ralph Lalama, Gary Smulyan, and Tim Hagans.

Steve Greenlee of JazzTimes stated "This disc can be considered something of a sequel to 1995’s Rush Hour, which stands among Lovano’s very best...

[8] John Fordham of The Guardian commented "This could have been a legacy-jazz homage that simply polished the glossy surfaces of these timeless pieces, but Lovano and Schuller have chosen to look both back at the genre's pre-bop roots and forward to the free-jazz it helped release".
