Description:
This phenomenal double CD includes the first ever digital recording of Chet Baker’s legendary performance at the Conservatorio Cherubini in Firenze, Italy on the afternoon and evening of January 24, 1956. Although Baker performed material during these two sets that wasn’t recorded, our edition contains all eight of the tracks that were recorded live from these excellent concerts and originally released on two rare albums by the Replica label. In addition to the outstanding music above this release also contains 10 bonus tracks that pertain to the same period of time as Baker’s Conservatorio Cherubini Concert. These performances are extremely important both for the exquisite quality of the music and great historical significance. They feature Chet Baker with such important musicians as Caterina Valente, the Kurt Edelhagen Orchestra, Al Cohn, Bob Brookmeyer and Gerry Mulligan. |
