Jazz & Tzaz "Swingin 'Jazz On Impulse"

Beyond style, the swing is the particular sense that it turns out - and cause - the jazz.  As he said, and Duke Ellington, "I don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing", and the music that we present in this CD proves the truth of speech: souingkati really moving jazz in a variety style, with great music, taken from the history list of the company Impulse, especially in the first half of the sixties.
Beautiful latin, beautiful blues, BOSA NOVA beautiful, beautiful ballad, beautiful musicals, tango beautiful, beautiful swing-a common denominator the beautiful rhythmic feel our broadcast musicians like Duke Ellington, the Coleman Hawkins, the Dizzi Gillespie, the Charles Mingus, by John Coltrane, Sonny Rollins and the other an amazing souing company ...

''Jazz & Τζαζ'': Swinging Jazz Lovers

A man and a woman. Coping in a cascade of erotic moments of jazz singer. A normal position - defensive or aggressive, full of Swing and feeling, made for years.

There is nothing new - but each time it sounds like new. Mixed nostalgia, determination, joy, sorrow, confidence, anger, belief, expectation - and outstanding melodies with the interpretations that we hear here from voices and instruments. It is the same, the one and only feeling like mutate over time.
It's Louis Armstrong and Billie Holiday, the Fred Astaire and Anita O'Day, the Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown and Shirley Horn, the Lucky Peterson and Cassandra Wilson, the Billy Eckstine and Blossom Dearie, the Joe Williams and The Betty Carter ...

''Jazz & Τζαζ'': Jazz Carnival

       In particular softness and sophisticated mood, the CD was "broken down" some of the wonderful Latin music and moods that enter the body of jazz and become one with it.

It is a creative "disguise", a carnival for every season, a celebration of body and spirit. With very mambo and BOSA NOVA, and simple passing moments - a fleeting feeling and permanent, which underlines the fact that jazz at its best, always treated as holiday.

In this case, the valuable archives of Blue Note us with the material and grooves to put together this celebration, this Jazz Carnival - on our own terms ...
