Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Classical Music

Amazon.com

Swing is everywhere these days, but it's seldom played with the consummately relaxed skill heard here, with Hyman leading a mid-sized band of celebrated veterans. Bucky Pizzarelli on guitar, Milt Hinton on bass, and Butch Miles on drums make up a perfect swing rhythm section, while the horns provide vitally individualistic sounds and ideas, from Joe Newman's sly, muted trumpet to Joe Temperley's gruffly sweet baritone saxophone. The repertoire provides an authentic portrait of the swing era, from the energetic "Moten Swing" through Ellington's "Dooji Wooji" and Fletcher Henderson's beautiful "Soft Winds" to the pop songs of the day, like "Moonglow" and "Them There Eyes." Hyman displays the same musicianship apparent in his solo piano recordings, making wondrous use of space to let the rhythm section shine through. --Stuart Broomer

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Sound
Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2015

This is a great CD. This recording may be the best I have in my collection. Instruments sound as close to live as I have ever heard. I have a very resolving stereo and this sound great on it but surprisingly it even my wife's pick up truck stereo sound good. The music is well chosen and lively with a great range of instruments chosen for occasional solos. If this is your kind of thing also consider buying Bug Music.If you like swing you have to get this. If you want to show off just how good your audio system can sound you've got to get this too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Audio, Classic Swing

I am listening to this CD as I type this. For "stereophiles" and those of you who love great audio, the sound on this CD is superb...crystal clear, vibrant sound that is the best I have heard on a jazz CD...the bass and the piano and drums, the horns, everything is as "live" sounding as you could want in recorded sound, perfectly balanced and just the right amount of warmth .... The music is classic swinging small group jazz played by consummate pros. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un best of !
Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2011

Une bande de copains, musiciens talentueux et vétérans du swing se réunissent pour graver une somme, véritable mémoire. Cela sonne comme du swing pur et sans bavure. La section rythmique ne plaisante pas, même si l'ensemble est placé sous l'heureuse atmosphère de partitions classique remarquablement bien écrites. Hyman pianiste virtuose dirige l'ensemble qui se fond et se confond dans un espace sonore bien carré. Si vous ne devez avoir qu'un spécimen de cette musique si particulière, c'est celui-là qu'il faut ranger dans sa discothèque.

Awesome jazz. Our DJ played this through dinner at our wedding reception and so many guests commented on how great the music was. I immediately went out and got the CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ritorno al vinile
Reviewed in Italy on January 13, 2013
Verified Purchase
Beh non servono molte parole per descrivere la bellezza "visiva" e "tecnica" di questi due lp da 200 gr a 45 g. di assoluto riferimento - e non avevo alcun dubbio sulla qualità di queste straordinarie incisioni (senza mezzi termini allo "stato dell'arte") della Reference Recordings, men che meno dello SWING strepitoso con un piano orchestrale che meglio non si può eseguito da magnifici artisti che ancora oggi sono un punto di riferimento in tutto il panorama mondiale. Per non parlare della bellissima e pesante confezione che da sola vale tutti gli euri spesi. Che dire di più? Per chi ama il genere (ma anche per chi non lo ama) e per chi non rinuncerà mai al calore e al suono "puro" del vinile dico: non avere questi punti di riferimento nella nostra collezione significa limitare la nostra mente dentro un ristretto e misero confine psicologico (mi riferisco al costo): meglio pochi ma buoni !

A pleasant set of tracks, with the usual immaculate touch of Dick Hyman. Perhaps this music is considered out-of-date but it suits me.
