Claude Bolling - American Movies - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Jazz, and Java have had for all eternity only two words to say. They are stories of man and women, songs of musicians that owe and play at the same time for the dancers and for the musicians. Yes a music of musician for musician. Franck Bergerot has united only the best artists, the most famous (Marcel Azzola), the most surprising (the voval virtuosity of Minvielle) and tender ones. LaValse a Margaux by Richard Galliano is perfect. That's rare, perfection.

A great figure in European jazz, the eternal ambassador of Big Band Swing and the inventor of 'crossover,' Claude Bolling is also a prolific composer of film-music. His original soundtracks - from Borsalino and Lucky Luke to the Brigades du Tigre television series - belong in the league of works by Lalo Schifrin or Henry Mancini. This anthology compiled by Stéphane Lerouge contains great Bolling classics as well as rarities (some of them for the first time on disc).

I must have been a phylloxera in a former life, sings the man who, at first glance, you wouldn't believe had ever been intoxicated in this life! On closer inspection, however, you notice the mischievous, rascal-like quality that flashes out of his bright blue eyes and signals InchI've got more than you think! And he really does, this Max Müller, known from the TV series InchRosenheim CopsInch as the lovable policeman Michi Mohr! On his new album InchTierisch!Inch he encounters his own weaknesses and imperfections Inchin animal garbInch, so to speak, singing and speaking. Whether in the razor-sharp everyday observations of Joachim Ringelnatz, in the bestial bel canto of Gioacchino Rossini, in the famously animal-friendly Viennese songs of Georg Kreisler, or deep down in the water, where even the fish sing their songs in Christian Morgenstern's songs - everywhere you will meet lots of good acquaintances! Hits of the 30s and 40s like InchDie süßesten FrüchteInch, InchWenn ich mit meinem Dackel...Inch, InchSo ein Regenwurm hat's gutInch, InchIn der Bar zum KrokodilInch and InchAm AmazonasInch are represented as well as poems by Morgenstern and Busch. From Gelsen, die keine Pension zahlen, to Schubert's InchForelleInch and Mozart's InchPapagenoInch, the palette of this ravishingly enjoyable album ranges. Müller's artistic range matches his musical curiosity, diversity and expressiveness. InchTierisch!Inch is already the third by the artist Max Müller on the Solo Musica tag.
