Dvorak / Ravel / Sulkhanishvili Piano Duo - Sulkhanishvili Piano Duo - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

With over forty albums to their credit and a busy concert schedule stretching back more than thirty years, the British piano duo of Anthony Goldstone and Caroline Clemmow was firmly established as a leading force. Their recordings are not only brilliant performances but usually innovatively programmed, leading to rave reviews for every album. Sadly Goldstone died in January 2017 but their legacy lives on. This album was originally released in 2007 but withdrawn due to complex issues regarding one track. Now available again (without that track!) this is a superb rendition of music inspired by jazz and popular idioms, including the original piano duo versions (not transcriptions) of several of the pieces. The combination of these two great composers and one of the world's best-ever duos makes for a stunning recital album.

Before Tenor Saxophonist Turk Mauro fully relocated to Paris, France in 1991, he was working on a special project an album of ballads that were not always played as ballads. In 1988 he began recording this project for Bloomdido Records, a French independent tag, run by Jacques Charmeteau. Charmeteau had the insight to record several albums by Mauro, featuring his brother, drummer Ron Turso in various settings. For this first time digital , Soul Kid Jazz brings you InchLove SongsInch, digitally cleaned up and remastered for 2022 so that lovers of ballads and straight ahead jazz music can hear this Saxophone master, perhaps for the first time. The story of this album has a rather melancholy tale attached to it, as the mother of Turk and Ron, Angelica, lay dying in a hospital in Florida, USA. The brothers had been booked for a tour of France, and they were unsure if they should depart or not, but their amazing mom told the brothers, InchGo and knock 'em out boys!Inch And so they went on the tour, along with their high school pal, Hammond Organ great Bobby Forrester, and unfortunately Angelica passed while they were out on the road. Upon learning this terrible news, Turk decided it was time to stay in Paris and finish up the Love Songs project. Charmeteau brought them into Sun Studio, and what transpired is a profoundly heartfelt dedication to Angelica Turso, who had passed away on January 15th, 1990. The session was recorded only 3 days later. On this entire album, specially on InchCome Back to SorrentoInch Turk pours his heart and soul into the music, as he says goodbye to her in song. Rounding out the personnel, on the earlier session is the great pianist Jimmy Rowles, who also blesses us with some vocals on InchDo You Know Why Stars Come Out at NightInch. Another interesting feature is the very rare Ellington chestnut InchUntil TonightInch, which was a Ben Webster f
