THE INVENTIONS TRIO

FANTASY

Description:
This is a rather unusual makeup for a trio playing any sort of music, but it works beautifully might I even say inventingly? on the nine tracks. The Rachmaninov Vocalise has been transcribed dozens of different ways. The Trio's version is one of the finest I've heard. Gershwin's Second Prelude for Piano has also come in for some unusual transcriptions, and the Trio's is highly successful here. Other delights are the Scriabin Prelude and Debussy's Girl with the Flaxen Hair. May's own extended Fantasy the disc's title tune mixes the two genres with great skill and reminded me in some parts of Claude Bolling's chamber jazz Suites.
