Tony Lakatos & Frankfurt Radio Bigband: Porgy & Bess

Read "Porgy & Bess" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


L'arrangiatore e conduttore d'orchestra Jorg Achim Keller aveva preparato con grande cura gli arrangiamenti di una versione allargata della celebre opera di George Gershwin avendo in mente il sax di Michael Brecker come solista di eccellenza e la Big Band della radio di Francoforte come accompagnamento. Purtroppo la prematura scomparsa del grande saxofonista americano ha vanificato ...

Clark Terry: Porgy & Bess

Read "Porgy & Bess" reviewed by Alex K. Fong


The Gil Evans arrangements of George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess have lain fallow ever since their 1958 recording by iconic trumpeter Miles Davis. That is, until now. Trumpeter and flugelhornist Clark Terry replaces Davis, his former protégé, as the soloist on the Chicago Jazz Orchestra's rendition of the Evans Porgy and Bess arrangements. Terry is an ...

For the second time in a year, a major collaboration of Miles Davis-Gil Evans from the late 1950s has been repackaged with a new dressing. This venture is not another ho-hum guest shot from a jazz dignitary sitting in with an orchestra. Clark Terry lends not only his noted name but his distinctive talents to this ...

Clark Terry with the Chicago Jazz Orchestra: Porgy & Bess

Read "Porgy & Bess" reviewed by Jack Bowers


More than four decades ago, trumpeter Miles Davis collaborated with arranger Gil Evans to produce what many observers look upon as the definitive jazz version of George Gershwin's groundbreaking folk opera, Porgy and Bess. It takes a sturdy backbone, not to mention enormous talent, to reproduce and strive to enrich a classic, but into the breach ...
