Angel Dances
$13.05 This disc was nominated for the 1997 Grammy Award for "Best Small Ensemble Performance."
Selections recorded July 1995 at Lockenhaus Castle and January 1996 at Studio Guillaume Tell, Paris, France.
From the violinist and Piazzolla fanatic Gidon Kremer comes this album of works by Piazzolla, along with one song in tribute to the legend. He covers a decent range of Piazzolla's work, moving equally well between slower milongas and faster tangos. The album starts out with the relatively somber, but quite dramatic "Milonga en re." It then moves on to a more upbeat set with "Vardarito" and the grandiose "Oblivion." Then comes "Escualo," which has something nearly akin to a march driving it. The more nostalgic tone of "Café 1930" immediately follows, snapping the listener back into a somber mood. The grand "Concierto para quinteto" makes an appearance, followed by "Soledad" and the deeper, darker sound of "Buenos Aires hora cero." "Celos" follows, to be followed itself by Jerry Peterburshsky's tribute to Piazzolla, "El sol sueno." Many of the attributes of Piazzolla's compositions make themselves apparent in this tribute, though the strings are in places somewhat more standard than Piazzolla's music might normally lead one to be accustomed to. The album finishes on the aptly titles "Grand Tango," for simply violin and piano. Kremer is among a small handful of musicians that are able to aptly evoke the power of the music of Piazzolla to come along since the death of Piazzolla (Yo-yo Ma's masterful album of Piazzolla works also numbers with Kremer). The passion and emotion created by Piazzolla's tangos are performed nearly to perfection here, with the only downside being the absence of Piazzolla himself. ...

Angel Dances
$18.29 This eponymous collection from the Past Perfect label collects 37 performances from Ella Fitzgerald's time with the Decca label during the late '30s and '40s -- a period where she was blooming but not yet in full flower. It's also a period that's been surveyed hundreds of times since the beginning of the LP era, and the sound is closer to fair than perfect. With just a few exceptions, ballads and standards are the order of the day, including "How High the Moon," "Oh, Lady Be Good," and "I'm Beginning to See the Light." ~ John Bush
Personnel: Ella Fitzgerald (vocals); Louis Armstrong (vocals, trumpet); Danny Perri, Dave Barbour, Everett Barksdale, Hy White, Carl Hogan (guitar); Heine Beau, Bill Stegmeyer (clarinet, alto saxophone); Hank D'Amico (clarinet); George Koenig, Paul Bardon, Bill Holcombe, Eddie Caine, Arthur Baker, Sid Cooper, George Dorsey, Hymie Schertzer, Milt Yaner (alto saxophone); Dick Jacobs, Fred Williams, Eddie Johnson , Sid Rubin, John Lesko, Stuart Anderson, Jack Dumont, Jack Greenberg, Jerry Jerome, Al Klink, Harold Feldman, Art Drellinger (tenor saxophone); Eddie Shomer, Milton Chatz, Dave ...

Angel Dances
$14.69 If you play the trombone, or are a ragtime fancier, then you just might know something about ace trombonist and legendary bandleader Arthur Pryor. He was a household name in America and much of the world in the first decades of the 20th century, but Pryor faded into memory, like so many things from that idealistic time, after World War I shocked everyone into what an awful place the new, technologically oriented world could be. Fortunately, one of the new technologies about which Pryor was particularly enthusiastic -- recording -- helped to preserve his work even as his entire band's library has burned and many of the old surviving photographs of his likeness have faded past rescue. Archeophone's Arthur Pryor collection Echoes from Asbury Park ain't no Bruce Springsteen record, folks. It is a blast from a very different past: one with kids in knickers nibbling away at those new-fangled ice cream cones, when ladies wore gigantic hats well-peppered with the remnants of many a dead bird, and a gentleman only used foul language in the presence of other gentlemen, thank you.
Pryor's recording career under his own name stretches from 1903 to the mid-'20s, but Echoes from Asbury Park wisely limits its compass to the period between 1903 and 1913, when he worked most extensively with the Victor record company and maintained a full-time touring band. Production consultant David Sager, who also provided excellent notes for this project, organizes the program into two distinct halves representing noontime and summer-evening concert programs as might have been heard in New Jersey's Asbury Park. It is strongly suggested that the listener observe the break in between the two; listening straight through might induce a case of ennui somewhere around "Aloha Oe." If you give up there you will miss all of the nifty ragtime novelties such as "Razzaza Mazzaza" and the knockout precision of Pryor's Band in such fast, difficult pieces as "Dance of the Weasels." There isn't a bounty of Pryor trombone solos as may be found on other reissues, as this collection is devoted to Pryor's Band as a whole. Likewise, some might decry the exclusion of certain Pryor "hits" that are still reasonably well known, such as his record of "The Teddy Bears' Picnic" (issued as one side of Victor 16001, the company's first two-sided record in a regular series) or any of the several recordings he made of his own "The Whistler and His Dog." Nevertheless, let's face it, folks; you can't have everything, and if you're looking for hits from 1908, then good luck to you! Perhaps Archeophone will address that issue someday in their Phonographic Yearbook series. But if your interest runs into knowing something about Arthur Pryor, Pryor's Band, and the milieu in which he worked, Echoes from Asbury Park is not only the best resource on compact disc; it might even be the best resource of any kind on Pryor available, thanks to its well-chosen selection, great sound and its handsomely illustrated 24-page ...
