I received an email today reminding me that this went on sale today. Last week Jamie Saft and I friended each other on Facebook!

This arrived yesterday. I've been enjoying it, but I'm not sure that it is a good idea to remind people of Oscar Peterson. Longo's touch is not like Peterson's, and I suspect that fans of Peterson would rather listen to an album of his than this one.

My Hawthorn Hawks will be playing the Sydney Swans. Matt Priddis of the West Coast Eagles has been awarded the Brownlow Medal, which is the league's MVP award. As you can see here, the game will begin at 2:30 pm Saturday Melbourne time, which is12:30 am New York time and 9:30pm Friday Los Angeles time. http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/hawthorn-and-sydney-its-grand-to-see-you-again-20140922-10kfuc.html

I really like the selection of songs on this one.

A favorite album from my youth was Tomorrow Never Knows by Steve Marcus. Mike Nock takes a solo on Gary Burton's Half a Heart that I still enjoy 45 years later.

I recently shopped around, and selected the Original Mattress Factory. I've had it for about a month, and I'm quite pleased with it.

Happy Birthday niels!

I vote for Art Pepper's last performance, at the Kennedy Center with Roger Kellaway, which Laurie Pepper released on her Widow's Taste label.

I was surprised to read in BusinessWeek not long ago that Boston Brewing (Sam Adams) is America's largest brewer, because everyone larger is now owned by a foreign corporation. http://money.msn.com/business-news/article.aspx?feed=AP&date=20140919&id=17948124&ocid=ansmony11

My vague recollection of Manfred Mann Chapter III's first album is that one side tested the limit.

Tre Voci Kim Kashkashian viola Marina Piccinini flute Sivan Magen harp Claude Debussy: Sonata for flute, viola and harp / Tōru Takemitsu: And then I knew ‘twas Wind / Sofia Gubaidulina: Garten von Freuden und Traurigkeiten Kim Kashkashian, who won a Grammy last year with her solo viola Kurtág/Ligeti disc, returns with a new trio. Tre Voci includes Italian-American flutist Marina Piccinini and Israeli harpist Sivan Magen. All three musicians have been acknowledged for bringing a new voice to their instruments. Kashkashian, Piccinini and Magen first played together at the 2010 Marlboro Music Festival, and agreed that the potential of this combination was too great to limit it to a single season. Since then they have been developing their repertoire which, on this compelling first release, revolves around Debussy’s 1915 Sonata for flute, viola and harp and its influence. ©2014 ecm | 1755 Broadway, Floor 2, New York, NY 10019

This arrived Friday, and I didn't wait to put it on. I already like both Vitro and her taste in sidemen, so the question for me was always going to be her selection of songs. As it happens, I like these songs more and more each time I play the cd. Vitro already has five albums up on Spotify, so may she'll put this one up too.

I have received word that the street date for this was delayed a week, and that it went on sale yesterday.

Web Version Forward Unsubscribe [ PURCHASE TICKETS HERE ] In their new duo, the players approach the music on this striking and unusual album from different vantage points: Lechner is a classical soloist with an uncommon interest in improvisation, Couturier a jazz musician travelling ever further from jazz. On Moderato Cantabile they present their own arrangements of works by three fascinating outsiders from the margins of music history – G.I. Gurdjieff, Komitas, and Federico Mompou. To differing degrees their music reveals influences from the east, both in terms of relationship to folk traditions and religious music, and philosophically. A contemplative air pervades the session. ©2014 ecm | 1755 Broadway, Floor 2, New York, NY 10019
