  1. These three students play fine, but are not from the historically informed fraction (the cello played with a supporting rod is an indication). HIP trained performers would have chosen the right tempo and gesture.
  2. The Manuscript depicted in the link in the first post shows the violoncello part (basso) - obviously the pages had been cut a little bit, truncating the word "violoncello" at the top, when they were bound. It is seven movements in total, 12 minutes all together, which is normal for a serenade at the time it was probably written. If you follow the written music of the pages shown you can see it is all the seven parts. The applause, well ......
  3. Disc 6 with the Benny Golson Quartets.
  4. R.I.P. I once saw him guest with a local big band and was able to talk to him backstage after the concert as I had conducted a short interview with him via e-mal before on request of a local magazine. Very nice man. What was amazing was that his solos were full of well known phrases but sounded fresh and new coming out of his horn. Really great. He was the music.
  5. Oh well. R.I.P. He and Mike Bloomfiled did some important work.
  6. Discogs sorts by release date. All those releases indeed are reissues of pre-1960 recordings. Thanks for the info on that quintet, I couldn't find anything about. Cumberbatch plays on the two tracks reported.
  7. His recording career stops in 1960, after that The Jazz Discography Online has only two sessions in 1971 (Amram) and 1976 (Swing to Bop Quintet).
  8. You lucky bastard. 😄
  9. Just my thoughts.
  10. The book covers her career up to the point where she quit jazz! I do not see any reason to not believe her. So far seemingly objected to her book's contents.
  11. https://www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/B00LV8STE4/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=9533TPHO4PI4&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.IdSZ0cY66eswKEgeweMG59QGxs27OcxRz9xi08LN1oXLfgemq4iUYHIWIDHDYNMA7BOeF69Z2O8NvoKxP4iZeCw-HA_V_bHNBuZAvHxG_3Q.jeRy8ug_MaECCSsxXNtoHHPPzL7TAATgpIzxRJcss14&dib_tag=se&keywords=jane+getz&qid=1726417383&s=books&sprefix=jane+getz%2Cstripbooks-intl-ship%2C206&sr=1-1 That's what it did with me! She writes frankly about her experiences on the scene. Lots about all the big dogs she met and played with, Herbie Mann, Stan Getz, Charles Mingus, and lots of other people she met and befriended, Henry Grimes (who was a close friend), Joe Chambers (whom she dated) etc. A view from the inside, positive and negative.
  12. So keep and care for your vinyl.
  13. I can feel with you. I am close to selling most of my Miles Davis albums as I find much of his behaviour disgusting, and can't ignore it while listening. Same witn Freddie Hubbard after reading he attempted to rape Jane Getz.
  14. The weekend bottle: "Johan de Barrou" Corbieres Reserve 2018
