Customer Reviews for Bach To Brubeck Bass Trombone Concerto Blues Suite For Banjo And Orchestra
Beautiful performance but I wish choice of material had been focused more tightly
Rating:
The title of this CD properly advertises itself as a multi-faceted work, including some core classical pieces, some extensions into blues and folk, and so on. But the cover art, and the tantalizing credits (3 vocalists including the great Bill Crofut!!!) made me yearn for something this was never meant to be. That is, a true folk concerto using banjos, guitars etc. and vocalists singing folk music, to the consistent accompaniment of an orchestra. In other words, something for folk music that has been achieved so well in other idioms (i. e. Kunzel's tributes to Western and country music, Russo's music for blues band, Deep Purple's work with orchestras, etc.). Only the very brief "Unsquare Dance" achieves that. The individual works, especially with the trombone, constitute fine music, a solid four stars, but I yearn for what the picture hints at. Suggestions anyone?

SIMPLY THE BEST
Rating:
Have been fortunate to attend 2 Chris Brubeck concerts and have been a big fan ever since. Just need more CD's please.
This recording is simply thrilling. I highly recommend you add it to your collection and tell all your friends. Once you hear his music you are hooked and what a wonderful addiction.
Here's hoping we hear a lot from Chris and his friends.
