THE DUKE ELLINGTON MASTERS - 1965 (QUANTUM LEAP/ QLDVD 246) Dvd Falcon Theatre, Copenhagen (31 janvier 1965 - First and second sets) Durée : 112 mn. First set : Take the A train / Midriff / Afro bossa / Ad lib on Nippon / The opener / Chelsea bridge / Blow by blow / Excerpts from "Black, Brown and Beige". Second set : Medley : Satin doll - Sophisticated lady / Meaow meaow / Passion flower / Things ain't what they used to be / Jeep's blues / Perdido / Tootie for Cootie / Kinda dukish - Rockin' in rhythm / He huffed 'n puffed. On ne présente plus les solistes dans leurs morceaux fétiches. Le passage qui reprend des extraits de "Black, Brown and Beige" est un moment fort. On appréciera aussi l'apparition de Billy Strayhorn qui s'installe au piano le temps d'un morceau. Michael Jackson aurait-il aussi trouvé de l'inspiration chez Ray Nance ("He huffed'n puffed") ? Le Dvd est complété par des notes biographiques et discographiques ainsi que par le portrait de quelques membres de l'orchestre. |
