Description:Storyville Records ist stolz darauf, eines der beeindruckendsten Projekte des Meistersaxophonisten Phil Woods zu präsentieren: "Bird With Strings...And More!", das 2023 bei Storyville Records erscheinen wird. Die Aufnahmen zu diesem Album fanden am 13. Juni 2005 in der Tonhalle Zürich statt, unterstützt von Pianist Ben Aronov, Bassist Reggie Johnson, Schlagzeuger Douglas Sides und dem fantastischen Zürcher Kammerorchester. Der schöne und charakteristische Klang von Jazz und Pop, unterstützt von einem Streichorchester, ist ein ganz besonderes und seltenes Erlebnis. "Bird With Strings...And More!" nehmen das klassische Album "Charlie Parker With Strings" als Ausgangspunkt. Charlie Parker, auch bekannt als Bird, nahm das Original Charlie Parker With Strings 1949 mit einer Rhythmusgruppe und einer sehr kleinen Streichergruppe auf. Für diese Aufnahme hat PW alle neuen Arrangements auf der Grundlage der Originalpartituren geschrieben und die ursprünglichen Arrangements auf eine viel grö�ere Streichergruppe von 24/30 Stücken erweitert und eine kleine Holzbläsergruppe aus Oboe, Flöte und Klarinette hinzugefügt. - .. STRINGS...AND MORE!
Storyville Records is proud to present one of master saxophonist Phil Woods' most impressive projects, Bird With Strings... And More! Due for release on Storyville Records on March 3, 2023. The recording of this album took place in Tonhalle Zürich on June 13, 2005 with the help of pianist Ben Aronov, bassist Reggie Johnson, drummer Douglas Sides and the fantastic Zürich Chamber Orchestra. The beautiful and characteristic sound of jazz and pop supported by a string orchestra is a very special and rare experience. Bird With Strings... And More! #use the classic album Charlie Parker With Strings as a point of departure. Charlie Parker, also known as Bird, recorded the original Charlie Parker With Strings in 1949 with a rhythm section plus a very small string section. On this recording, PW has written all new arrangements based on the original scores, and expanded the original arrangements to a much larger string section of 24/30 pieces and added a small woodwind section of oboe, flute and clarinet. Woods also proceeded to write a dozen extra arrangements with the same instrumentation. PW pays perfect tribute to Bird and his original project, as he is the continuator of Bird's music, spirit and life, but PW has his very own sound signature, sometimes warm and sometimes volcanic. PW was not only an extraordinary alto saxophonist, but also an incredible composer and arranger. He is a modern jazz giant and one of the most important alto saxophonists in the history of jazz. Woods was known for a lyrical and beautiful sound making him one of the most popular musicians in mainstream jazz. Born in 1952, he was influenced by Charlie Parker and Lennie Tristano, but worked in both jazz and pop influencing artists like Kenny G and a whole generation of alto played in jazz. This is emotional music for lovers, so savor the moment and relax in the company of one of the true masters!
