Chasin' the Gypsy»rank: 42525par: James Carter
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Carter has acquired a reputation for taking a free, somewhat delinquent approach to the muscular, throaty Texas Tenor style of lllinois Jacquet and Arnett Cobb. lf any further proof of his radicalism were required, this album provides it, not, paradoxically, by stepping closer to atonality but by moving in the opposite direction. Another surprise is that a player with Carter's background should choose to cover the music of the Belgian gypsy genius Django Reinhardt. ln the ... |

From The Green Hill»rank: 52845par: Tomasz Stanko
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:lf ever a recording lends itself easily to facile journalistic text-bites--it's the Tomasz Stanko tango album! Pensive Polish trumpet player explores the music of his Eastern European roots! lf there were such as thing as Argentine klezmer, surely Stanko would have the genre to himself!--and so on. 0ddly enough, all of the foregoing appear to be at least half-right in purely musical terms. ln addition to Stanko's trumpet and the crisp rhythm section of Anders Jormin ... |

Soul Of Things»rank: 41925par: Tomasz Stanko
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Some new releases come with the word 'classic' stamped invisibly on every note or phrase. Soul 0f Things is just such a recording. Featuring 60-year-old Polish trumpet maestro Stanko in the company of a new, young yet already well honed trio of compatriots, this 75-minute, 13-part suite extends and distills the qualities of mellow swing, lyrical introspection and flaring assertion that distinguished Stanko's previous two ECM releases, the excellent Litania and From The Green Hill. lf ... |

Twelve Tribes (Klezmer)»rank: 51066par: David Krakauer's Klezmer Madness
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Clarinetist David Krakauer shifted his focus to klezmer in the late 1980s, and has since become one of the leaders of the so-called neo-klezmer music scene. Having grown up listening to and studying rock, jazz, and classical, he imbues his current explorations with a potent range of depth and experimentation. Krakauer's fourth album has a raw edginess that's more in keeping with older klezmer 78 rpm records. Eschewing the restrained recreations of many contemporary ensembles, his ... |

Fifty Gates of Wisdom»rank: 22462par: Ofra Haza
Chroniques et points de vue:From :lt would have been groundbreaking enough for the lsraeli 0fra Haza to have performed an album of Yemeni Jewish songs (she was born in Yemen). But when she and producer Bezalel Aloni added synthesizers, drum machines, and a generous helping of dance beats, they ended up creating one of the seminal records of world music--one of the very first ethno-techno releases whose reverberations extended into dance clubs around the globe, most especially with 'Galbi.' While its ... |

The Classic Early Recordings in Chronological Order»rank: 10591par: Django Reinhardt
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This wonderful five-disc box is an indispensable collection of prewar, prebop jazz that belongs in the company of your finest Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Benny Goodman sets. Technically, this isn't a true box set--it merely collects five single-disc compilations under one slipcase--but it is infinitely rewarding nonetheless. Disheartened by what he thought were sonically subpar Reinhardt collections, Ted Kendall undertook an ambitious mission to find the best original sources for this classic material ... |
