Purchase Offenbach: Gaîté Parisienne; Waldteufel: Waltzes To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Marian McPartland Live At Shanghai Jazz CD (2002)
Offenbach: Gaîté Parisienne; Waldteufel: Waltzes
 $9.89  
Recorded live at Shangai Jazz, Madison, New Jersey on April 24, 2001. Includes liner notes by Chip Deffa.
It's long been an adage that true jazz is best enjoyed live in a club setting where anything goes, and discs like this offer genuine support for that idea. First the history: The legendary McPartland is host of the acclaimed NPR series Piano Jazz, and has released over 50 albums with Concord in 25 years (most of them archive documents from the radio program). She first began playing with drummer Joe Morello in New York about 50 years ago, so it's easy to revere what's happening here as a powerful document affirming their legends. Bassist Rufus Reid rounds out the trio. Apart from the back story, this date, recorded at Shanghai Jazz in Madison, N.J., rolls along like the spirited session you expect, full of McPartland's technique blending lower-register dark chords with bright, dancing improvisations. This nuance is captured perfectly on a swinging rendition of Cole Porter's "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To," which ...
| | Barney Kessel Breakfast At Tiffany's/Bossa Nova/Contemporary Latin Rhythms CDs (2002)
Offenbach: Gaîté Parisienne; Waldteufel: Waltzes
$12.29 
Conte Candoli (trumpet); Victor Feldman (vibraphone); Emil Richards (marimba); Keith Mitchell (bass); Earl Palmer, Stan Levey (drums).
Originally released on Reprise (6019), Reprise (6049) & Reprise (6073).
This double CD is more about Barney Kessel the studio player than Kessel the jazz guitar legend. Still, this compilation of three LPs originally released between 1961-1963 has some good music, and Kessel the jazz man is not entirely absent, even though the settings do not call for him to stretch out.
Breakfast at Tiffany's is Kessel's handling of Henry Mancini's music from the classic Blake Edwards film with Audrey Hepburn. With a number entitled "Moon River Cha Cha," listeners pretty much know what's in store for them with this set: instrumental treatments of pop music that was riding high both on the airwaves and on the big screen. The tracks are brief and the playing doesn't stray far from the arrangements. The Bossa Nova session is a step closer to jazz, but the context is still ...
| | October Suite: Three Compositions Of Gary Mcfarland CD (1966) Remastered; Digipak
Offenbach: Gaîté Parisienne; Waldteufel: Waltzes
$9.79
Composer and arranger Gary McFarland was well-known in the 1960s for his film-scoring abilities and his charting skills with mid-sized bands. McFarland was also, however, a jazz fan, and particularly one of scalar pianist Steve Kuhn. This project features Kuhn in the center of a program made up entirely of McFarland compositions, all but two of which were written specifically for the album. Recorded in 1966, it is an anomaly in the Impulse catalog of the time in that it did not pursue the free jazz realms with the vengeance that most of the label's other acts did during that year. It is also significant that it caught the attention of a young Manfred Eicher, who later signed Kuhn to his ECM label based on the strengths of this recording. Like Keith Jarrett, Kuhn is in the pointillist school of jazz pianists of the era. Unlike Jarrett, Kuhn does not consider force in his attack as necessary as his labelmate does. Instrumentally, Kuhn's customary trio situation -- which is dutifully performed with zeal by Ron Carter and drummer Marty Morell -- is augmented with a string quartet on half the record, ...
| | Count Basie At Newport CD (1957) Bonus Tracks; Reissue; Remastered; Deluxe Edition
Offenbach: Gaîté Parisienne; Waldteufel: Waltzes
$12.65  
Originally released on Verve (6024). Includes liner notes by Richard Sudhalter.
By the time of this 1957 recording, the Basie band was enjoying something of a renaissance, and the appreciation of the audience for this legendary musician helps make this live recording all the warmer. This was a special night for the band, as it represented a coming together of the contemporary Basie assemblage with some of the original Kansas City veterans. Entrepeneur John Hammond, who helped bring Basie to national ...
| | Baker Street CD (1944) Original Cast Recording
Offenbach: Gaîté Parisienne; Waldteufel: Waltzes
$15.05 
Music composed by Richard Rodgers. Lyrics written by Oscar Hammerstein II.
Recorded in 1943 and 1944. Originally released on the Decca label. Includes liner notes by Max O. Preeo.
Rodgers & Hammerstein's adaptation of Lynn Riggs' play GREE GROW THE LILACS marked the birth of the modern musical. Music, lyrics, and choreography came together as never before to tell a uniquely American story, and enthralled audiences flocked to the show, breaking Broadway box-office records. In keeping with the production's pioneering spirit, it was also the first instance in which the entire cast was brought to the studio to record the show's musical numbers, thus originating the original cast recording. The concept proved highly successful--it wasn't long after the initial release of six-discs of 78s that another release featuring several songs not included in original set was brought to market. Eventually, ...
