MANHATTAN RAGTIME ORCHESTRA
AT THE JAZZ BAND BALL |  |
Description:
Just how entertaining is this CD, the second by this extraordinary ragtime band? Extremely! Beautifully recorded by Peter Karl, this group of talented musicians exhibit an energy seldom associated with ragtime. The title, "At The Jazz Band Ball' is quite apt as about half the tunes are from the dawn of jazz and its early years. The leadership and distinctive clarinet style of Orange Kellin is ever present, abetted by the idiomatic arrangements of the multi talented John Gill. Add the superb Norwegian pianist Morten Gunnar Larsen, and the result is an album, unique and engaging, one of the very best and most enjoyable Stomp Off has ever presented. |
