Glad to see that the OP has had a revelation re late Coltrane 😉
Jazz for aficionados
Jazz for aficionados
I'm going to review records in my collection, and you'll be able to decide if they're worthy of your collection. These records are what I consider "must haves" for any jazz aficionado, and would be found in their collections. I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record.
Our first album is "Moanin" by Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. We have Lee Morgan , trumpet; Benney Golson, tenor sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Jymie merrit, bass; Art Blakey, drums.
The title tune "Moanin" is by Bobby Timmons, it conveys the emotion of the title like no other tune I've ever heard, even better than any words could ever convey. This music pictures a person whose down to his last nickel, and all he can do is "moan".
"Along Came Betty" is a tune by Benny Golson, it reminds me of a Betty I once knew. She was gorgeous with a jazzy personality, and she moved smooth and easy, just like this tune. Somebody find me a time machine! Maybe you knew a Betty.
While the rest of the music is just fine, those are my favorite tunes. Why don't you share your, "must have" jazz albums with us.
Enjoy the music.

Hi Rok - Frogman is correct. Most Beethoven symphonies are scored for only two horns. The exceptions are #3, which is scored for three, and #9, which is scored for four. Sometimes you will see more than two players, though. In these cases, some of the sections of the work are being doubled - many conductors like to do this, though the players themselves almost never like to do that. Sometimes you might see three people out there in a piece scored for two, or more commonly five players out there for a piece scored for four horns. In this case, the extra player is called the assistant. They don't have their own part; they are there to assist the other players, mostly the principal. Many principal players would use an assistant for such a difficult work as the Beethoven 7th, though there is not being one used in that particular clip. By the way, another reason that the conductor could be turning over many pages at once is if they are going back to take a repeat. Or, they could have put a cut in the work. In either case, you will see many pages being turned over at once. |
