Original tekst

Classic Ballads With Strings. Inspired by Ben Webster. Composed by Glenn Zottola. For tenor sax. Jazz, Standards. Book and CD. Published by Music Minus One. MO.MMOCD12226. Ben Webster always had a split musical personality. On uptempo tunes, the great tenor-saxophonist could sound quite intense, with growls, honks, roars and screams being a natural part of his vocabulary. Yet on ballads, he could purr romantically like a pussycat, playing with great tenderness and sensuality while making every sound count. In both cases, Ben Webster’s playing was more about the sound than about the notes. Coleman Hawkins, his idol and main influence early on, could run rings around Webster harmonically, since Hawkins knew every chord backwards and forwards. Hawkins could make dozens of notes fit while Webster could get his message across with one perfectly placed sound. He had a unique sound and style, one that was at its prime for more than 30 years. Glenn Zottola was best known in his earlier years as a hot trumpeter whose classic style ranged from Louis Armstrong to Clifford Brown. He also occasionally played alto in those days but in more recent times has often recorded on tenor. The versatile Zottola has been featured on a series of stimulating projects for Music Minus One including tributes to Clifford Brown. on trumpet. , Charlie Parker. on alto. and Stan Getz's bossa nova period. on tenor. "This series lets me pay tribute to some of the great legends who influenced who I am," says Glenn Zottola, "and it also allows me to pass down to others what was passed down to me. A little while ago, I received a Dexter Gordon mouthpiece from the instrument company RS Berkeley. I had never played a metal mouthpiece before. It is so small it is almost like playing an alto mouthpiece. I decided to do some research into other tenor-saxophonists who had played metal mouthpieces, ranging from Sonny Rollins, early John Coltrane, Dexter and Don Byas, all the way back to Coleman Hawkins. When I reached Ben Webster, it brought back memories of listening to his recordings with Duke Ellington, and I was inspired to record these ballads with his flavor. On Ben Webster Revisited, Zottola makes no attempt to imitate Webster but performs a set of ballads utilizing the great tenor's relaxed and romantic approach along with hints of his airy breathy sound. Rather than playing double-time phrases, he lets the music breathe, putting plenty of feeling into each note. Among the highlights are such songs as "Can't Help Lovin' That Man". from Jerome Kern's Showboat. , "Stardust", "Blue Moon" and "Laura. " A special treat is hearing the beautiful "Portrait of Jennie", a song that has hardly been played in jazz since Clifford Brown. This is a very romantic album, one in which Glenn Zottola captures the essence of the great Ben Webster. --Scott Yanow, author of 11 books including Swing, Bebop, Jazz on Film and Jazz on Record 1917-76.

Klassiske Ballads With Strings. Inspireret af Ben Webster. Komponeret af Glenn Zottola. For tenor sax. Jazz, Standarder. Bog og CD. Udgivet af Music Minus One. MO.MMOCD12226. Ben Webster altid havde en split musikalsk personlighed. På uptempo melodier, kunne den store tenor-saxofonist lyde ganske intens, med knurrer honks, brøler og skrig bliver en naturlig del af hans ordforråd. Men på ballader, kunne han spinde romantisk som en missekat, spiller med stor ømhed og sensualitet, samtidig med at hver lyd tæller. I begge tilfælde, Ben Websters spiller var mere om lyden end omkring noterne. Coleman Hawkins, hans idol og vigtigste indflydelse tidligt, kunne køre ringe omkring Webster harmonisk, da Hawkins kendte hver akkord bagud og fremad. Hawkins kunne gøre snesevis af noter passer mens Webster kunne få sit budskab igennem med en perfekt placeret lyd. Han havde en unik lyd og stil, en, der var på sin premierminister i mere end 30 år. Glenn Zottola var bedst kendt i sine tidligere år som en varm trompetist hvis klassisk stil varierede fra Louis Armstrong til Clifford Brown. Han har også lejlighedsvis spillet alto i disse dage, men i nyere tid har ofte optaget på tenor. Den alsidige Zottola har været vist på en række stimulerende projekter Music Minus One, herunder hyldest til Clifford Brown. på trompet. , Charlie Parker. på alto. og Stan Getz s bossa nova periode. på tenor. "Denne serie lader mig hylde nogle af de store legender som påvirket, hvem jeg er," siger Glenn Zottola ", og det også giver mig mulighed for at passere ned til andre, hvad der var gået ned til mig. Et lille stykke tid siden, jeg har modtaget en Dexter Gordon mundstykke fra instrumentet selskab RS Berkeley. Jeg havde aldrig spillet en metal mundstykke før. Det er så lille, er det næsten som at spille en alto mundstykke. Jeg besluttede at gøre nogle forskning i andre tenor-saxofonister der havde spillet metal talerør, der spænder fra Sonny Rollins, tidlig John Coltrane, Dexter og Don Byas, hele vejen tilbage til Coleman Hawkins. Da jeg nåede Ben Webster, det bragt tilbage minderne om at lytte til hans optagelser med Duke Ellington, og jeg blev inspireret til at registrere disse ballader med sin smag. På Ben Webster Revisited, Zottola gør ingen forsøg på at efterligne Webster, men udfører et sæt af ballader udnytte den store tenor afslappede og romantiske tilgang sammen med antydninger af hans luftige breathy lyd. Snarere end at spille dobbelt-time sætninger, han lader musikken ånde, at sætte masser af følelse i hver tone. Blandt højdepunkterne er sådanne sange som "Kan ikke hjælpe Lovin 'Den mand". fra Jerome Kern Showboat. "Stardust", "Blue Moon" og "Laura. "En særlig behandler er hørelsen den smukke" Portrait of Jennie ", en sang, der er næsten ikke blevet spillet i jazz siden Clifford Brown. Dette er en meget romantisk album, et, hvor Glenn Zottola indfanger essensen af ​​den store Ben Webster. --Scott Yanow, forfatter til 11 bøger, herunder Swing, Bebop, Jazz på film og Jazz på Record 1917-1976.
