Customer Porgy & Bess & Bye Bye Birdie Reviews 




Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars A sum greater than its parts
I write a jazz programme for a German Radio station where a Gershwin anniversary is coming up. Great. Anything that gives me a chance to play one of the most swinging Big Band albums of all time. It has a dream line-up, although this is of course never a guarantee that the resulting project merited the effort. In this case the sum is greater than even the talented splendour of its parts. When the Album first appeared, "Downbeat" rated this and the Miles Davis/Gil Evans version with five stars adding that the Bill Potts version was "truer to the spirit" of the Gershwin masterpiece. True, the tonal colours that are caught are astonishing. Nothing against the somewhat icy rendition of David/Evans vesion. That one is something for the head and to be dressed warmly by! This version doesn't just make the heart sing but shout shout with joy to each solo and ensemble passage. Miss this re-issue of a rare recording at your peril.

5 stars A 'Must Have'
Anyone who appreciates good jazz should have this album set in their collection. The personnel lineup alone speaks for itself, not to mention Bill's fantastic arrangements.

Sound Of Light In Trees
David Dunn Sound Of Light In Trees CD  (2008)

Porgy & Bess & Bye Bye Birdie
CD $10.65
Dunn\'s 1990 composition of underwater pond insects, Chaos and the Emergent Mind of the Pond, became a classic in the field, excerpted widely on compilations and remaining in demand to this day as part of the CD Angels and Insects (OO Discs). Now, almost twenty years later, Dunn’s research into the acoustic behaviors of bark beetles in our native Northern New Mexico has produced a stunning new CD-length work that opens ears to the wonderfully complex acoustic ecology of pinyon (piñon) pines.The Sound of Light in Trees had a dual genesis. The first was creative. For the past several years, David Dunn has been developing innovative, low-cost microphones for use in recording sounds that are normally out of reach of human hearing: probe mics for use in small spaces (like the holes made in trees by beetles), mics to record infrasonic (low frequency) sounds in prairie dog villages, and a revolutionary omni-directional ultrasonic mic that has led to many long nights listening to bats, as well as an increasing catalog of unidentified high-frequency sounds both in the wild and in urban settings.
