The Prism. The WDR Big Band Cologne plays music of Bill Dobbins and Peter Erskine. Composed by Bill Dobbins, Peter Erskine. For Big Band. CD only - No Sheet Music included. Published by Advance Music. AV.2000011. Since September , 1994, I have had the unique pleasure of working with and writing for one of the very best big bands in the world. If you have already listened to the CD, you certainly need no further evidence. If you havent already listened to it, then you are in for a real treat. As if the exceptional lead instrumentalists, the long list of outstanding soloists and the incredible range of woodwind doubling were not enough, this band has the luxury of actually earning its living simply from playing music together on a daily basis throughout the year. This results in a level of ensemble playing which is nearly impossible to achieve, even with the best musicians, in the more usual free lance situations. Such conditions are only possible because this band is employed full time by the WDR. West German Radio, actually West-Deutscher Rundfunk. Since this is the bands first CD of my compositions and arrangements, I tried to put together a program which showcases the bands broad musical spectrum and solo talent to maximum advantage. It was an extra special pleasure to collaborate with guest drummer and composer Peter Erskine. Peter has done a couple of projects a year with the band, including an enormously successful appearance at the January, 1998 convention of the International Association of Jazz Educators in New York City. Peters compositions offer a lot of room for the arrangers imagination, and the combination of his unique gifts as a drummer with the capabilities of our band is truly a writers dream. The first four pieces are from studio productions with Peter, and the last four are from a live concert at the Stadtgarten, a local club in Cologne which is one of several venues where the band performs on a regular basis. I listened to this without knowing who did what, but my impression turned out to be the truth. The arrangements are obviously by Bill Dobbins and are of such high quality that one is flabbergasted by listening. Elegy is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard wistful and lovely and Lo Flame has some brilliant trumpet writing in it. Heiner Wiberny is probably one of the best lead alto players I have known and you soon recognize the difference between the tenor sax sounds of Olivier Peters and Rolf Romer and their succeeding styles. Henning Berg is immediately identifiable by his sound and style of playing. Also identifiable is Andy Haderer, both in style and his tone. The band is absolutely in top shape and has played all of this material exceedingly well. Clare Fischer. Loose Your Life. and It Will Surely Find You. Elegy. Seibernetics. Song for Jaco. Lo Flame. Prism. If Only I Had Known. Bulgaria.

Prism. WDR Big Band Köln spiller musik af Bill Dobbins og Peter Erskine. Sammensat af Bill Dobbins, Peter Erskine. For Big Band. CD kun - Ingen Noder inkluderet. Udgivet af Advance Music. AV.2000011. Siden september 1994 har jeg haft den enestående fornøjelse af at arbejde med og skrive for en af ​​de allerbedste big bands i verden. Hvis du allerede har lyttet til cd'en, du helt sikkert brug ikke yderligere dokumentation. Hvis du havent allerede lyttet til det, så du er i for en reel behandling. Som om de ekstraordinære bly instrumentalister, den lange liste af udestående solister og den utrolige vifte af træblæser fordobling ikke var nok, dette band har den luksus faktisk tjene dens levende simpelthen fra at spille musik sammen på daglig basis i løbet af året. Dette resulterer i et niveau for sammenspil, som er næsten umuligt at opnå, selv med de bedste musikere, i de mere sædvanlige freelance situationer. Sådanne vilkår er kun muligt, fordi dette band er ansat på fuld tid i WDR. Vesttyske Radio, faktisk vest-Deutscher Rundfunk. Da dette er den bands første cd af mine kompositioner og arrangementer, jeg har forsøgt at sammensætte et program, som viser den bands bredt musikalsk spektrum og solo talent til maksimal fordel. Det var en ekstra særlig fornøjelse at samarbejde med gæst trommeslager og komponist Peter Erskine. Peter har gjort et par projekter et år med bandet, herunder en enorm succes optræden på januar-konventionen af ​​1998 af den internationale sammenslutning af Jazz Educators i New York. Peters kompositioner tilbyder en masse af plads til arrangører fantasi, og kombinationen af ​​hans unikke gaver som en trommeslager med mulighederne i vores band er virkelig en forfattere drøm. De første fire stykker er fra studieproduktioner med Peter, og de sidste fire er fra en live koncert på Stadtgarten, en lokal klub i Køln, som er et af flere steder, hvor bandet udfører på regelmæssig basis. Jeg lyttede til dette uden at vide hvem der gjorde hvad, men mit indtryk viste sig at være sandheden. Ordningerne er naturligvis af Bill Dobbins og er af så høj kvalitet, at man er paf ved at lytte. Elegy er en af ​​de smukkeste stykker musik jeg nogensinde har hørt vemodig og dejlige og Lo Flame har nogle geniale trompet skriftligt på det. Heiner Wiberny er formentlig en af ​​de bedste lead alto spillere, jeg har kendt, og du snart erkende forskellen mellem de tenor sax lyde af Olivier Peters og Rolf Romer og deres efterfølgende stilarter. Henning Berg er umiddelbart identificeres af hans lyd og spillestil. Også identificerbare er Andy Haderer, både i stil og hans tone. Bandet er absolut i topform og har spillet alt dette materiale overordentlig godt. Clare Fischer. Loose Your Life. og det vil helt sikkert finde dig. Elegy. Seibernetics. Song for Jaco. Lo Flame.
