Ron Carter is a name that carries tremendous weight so I’m very optimistic about that one.

I hope it doesn't disappoint. This one is actually I have in my CD collection. The first time I heard the album it was played in a restaurant. I asked the waiter who were they playing and they said Ron Carter. I had to buy the album. It combines my love for J.S. Back and the double bass.

My copy is ripped from vinyl. It's a great album, just not in that many formats online.

You know jazz dudes often take heat for branching into classical

Parker with Strings, which is gorgeously orchestrated got lots of heat

It often strikes me as racial stay in your lane bs

Another odd thing is from the Baroque period through to the Romantic period it was commonplace to composers/performers to improvise but now there’s this uptight rigid approach to classical music that’s not even traditionally rooted

Real jazz interpretations of classical works are way to few and far between

And performers should be taking far more more liberties more often especially with romantic era composers. A contemporary pianist has no reason not to break into atonal interpretations when playing Chopin and Liszt for example. I mean to the modern ear the endless arpeggios do get tedious there’s no reason not to pepper the performances with some dissonance and atonality. The entire myth that you can’t rewrite this stuff is bull****. Of course you can.

I always found the distinction unnecessary, but damn that makes a lot of sense.

Church. Big ass steeple. I'd kill to see a Mozart performance with a badass pianist taking a lot of liberties with it. I bet Mozart would too.

Damn, I would absolutely love Chopin or Bach broken up with some dissonant improv. Anyone knows about something like this out there?
