Brubeck: Time Out (UltraHD review)
Dave Brubeck Quartet. Sony Music 88843026022 (remastered).Alto saxophonist and composer Paul Desmond once said of "Take Five," "It was never supposed to be a hit. It was supposed to be a Joe Morello drum solo." Desmond's composition became the biggest-selling jazz single in history. Jazz pianist Dave Brubeck (1920-2012) formed his quartet in 1951, and they continued playing until his death. Their biggest album, of course, was "Time Out," recorded in 1959 and included "Take Five." The album and the single have become jazz classics, so it was good that the late record producer Winston Ma (FIM, First Impression Music) helped in the album's audiophile remastering in 2014. It is currently available in its remastered form from Sony Music. Although members of the quartet changed over the years, the personnel for "Time Out" consisted of Dave Brubeck, piano; Paul Desmond, alto sax; Eugene Wright, bass; and Joe Morello, drums.

[…] tempo in the two "Louanges" (praises). The varied programme on the following day (Friday) was quite attractive (though Sacred music would have been more apposite). There were, yes, unwelcome photographers. It started with the strong, dramatic Cello Sonata by Edvard Grieg, played with fortitude and accuracy by José Alberto Araujo and Fernanda Morello (the turbulent end of the first movement elicited out-of.place applause). After the interval, the bitterersweet, succinct Sonata for flute and piano by Poulenc was played with taste and cleanness by Jorge de la Vega (first desk of the Colón Orchestra for the last 32 years) and Morello, a very flexible and professional artist.

[…] very well played by the Buenos Aires Philharmonic under their recently chosen interim Assistant Conductor, Darío Domínguez Xodo, who is quite competent. "Diamond" has a basic failure: you can´t do a Neoclassic choreography on such Modernistic, intense and even barbarous music as that Prokofiev masterpiece, his Third Piano Concerto (correctly played by Fernanda Morello). I found the initial movement quite boring, but the second (a theme with variations) , aided by fine lighting by Rubén Conde, allowed a well-wrought pas de deux for a talented twosome, Paula Cassano and Matías Santos. The third had glittering costumes by the Brazilian René Salazar, in accord with the symbol chosen by the choreographer (there was a diamond-shaped chandelier looming over the dancers) and some […]
