出品厂牌：Venus Records 唱片编号：TKCV-35416 音乐风格：Jazz 专辑介绍： 白人爵士歌后海伦玛芮尔最受欢迎的曲目，由合作多年的伴奏泰德罗森修担纲演奏，优美的琴音带你重温一首又一首的经典。 　 1930年出生於纽约的海伦玛芮尔（Helen Merrill）是最受日本听眾喜爱的爵士歌手，1954年第一张专辑即由乐坛教父Quincy Jones制作，之后推出了超过四十张的爵士专辑。海伦玛芮尔的特殊之处不仅在於她是当时爵士乐界少有的白人歌手，更在於她之后在欧洲、日本长住的歌唱生涯。在这两个地方，她都继续灌录唱片，至今她仍然每年在这两地举办巡迴演唱。也因此，日本听眾对於这位歌手有著特殊的情感。 　 科班出身，曾经获得塞隆尼斯梦克钢琴大赛首奖的泰德罗森修从1996年之后长期担任海伦玛芮尔巡迴演唱乐队的钢琴手，因此当要在Venus灌录第二张专辑时，唱片公司提出了演奏她畅销曲的要求。这对泰德罗森修来说当然易如反掌，而且他还有默契绝佳，一样是伴奏乐队长期班底的贝斯手乔治马拉斯一同演出。鼓手方面则是爵士乐界的传奇人物，曾与迈尔斯戴维斯合作超过十三年的艾尔佛斯特。这位鼓手在爵士乐界合作过的人物简直就是爵士名人录，替这个三重奏加分不少。 　 选曲方面，不仅是海伦玛芮尔的歌迷，就算是一般爵士乐迷对这些标準曲目也是耳熟能详。选录了罗杰斯、盖西文的作品各两曲，还有柯尔波特的「You’d Be So Nice To Come Home To」、比莉哈乐黛的「Don’t Explain」，以及爵士乐中有著近乎国歌地位的「Autumn Leaves」。泰德罗森修的钢琴演奏既尊重原始的旋律，又带著品味极高的即兴成份，而鼓手与贝斯手总能适度的在乐曲中间填补，让音乐听起来丰富而充满趣味。尤其是艾尔佛斯特的鼓，即使在极慢板歌曲中也有精彩繁复的演奏，听来相当引人入胜。 　 建议聆听「Softly As In A Morning Sunrise」，中间有精彩的贝斯独奏，而最后钢琴与鼓再来上一段精彩应对，可说将三人的技巧发挥到淋漓尽致。既有著选曲上的通俗流行性，又有著爵士乐该有的深度与趣味，这是一张值得收藏、长期聆赏的专辑，无怪乎唱片一推出就获得Swing Journal杂誌的金唱片推荐。 　 在录音方面，本张专辑维持Venus的传统，在纽约The Studio进行录制，三样乐器都有极为传真的音质，自然的空间残响与乐手细微的动作都能精彩的捕捉，加上Venus独家的混音与母带处理技术，听来宛如置身乐手面前，是示范等级的音响饗宴。

Review: Ted Rosenthal's My Funny Valentine finds the pianist joined by bassist George Mraz and drummer Al Foster in a tribute to singer Helen Merrill. Rosenthal and Mraz have toured extensively with Merrill in Japan and this CD serves up songs from her repertoire. The subtleties of the arrangements combined with intriguing juxtapositions and perfect lyricism make this a stellar session. The tunes are from the Great American Songbook and, Merrill connection aside, this continues Rosenthal's exploration of the standards. The musicianship does not disappointment and songs that have been recorded literally thousands of times are cleverly reworked by Rosenthal's keen grasp of both the lyric and the sentiment behind the phrase, triggering interesting associations. As an example, the Latin underpinnings of the Sigmund Romberg classic "Softly as In a Morning Sunrise" are exquisitely exposed to set up a paean to exotica that serves as an intro to a swinging interpretation of the melody. In contrast to the title track that is slowly unwound to accentuate its pathos, the other Richard Rodgers entry, "Falling in Love With Love," has its waltz tempo lightly swung, turning the regret of the lyric somewhat on its head. Several of these tunes do swing hard and such is the case with Gershwin's "S'Wonderful" and a rousing version of "Autumn Leaves." Two ballads associated with Billie Holiday, her own "Don't Explain" and "Lover Man," maintain their bluesy feel while also serving as vehicles for emotive improvising. Rosenthal continues to impress as a pianist who, while ostensibly working in the mainstream, consistently infuses his projects with a fresh creative aesthetic. ~By Elliott Simon at Allaboutjazz.com Ted Rosenthal Biography:

A fine modern mainstream pianist, Ted Rosenthal first gained fame when he won the 2nd annual Thelonious Monk International Piano Competition in 1988. In 1990 he recorded his debut set as a leader for Ken and has since recorded as a leader for CTI, the Jazz Alliance and Concord (including an entry in the legendary Maybeck Recital Hall series). Rosenthal worked as part of the last Gerry Mulligan Quartet during 1992-95, making three CDs with the baritonist. He has also worked with Art Farmer, Jon Faddis, Benny Golson, James Moody, Jim Hall, Phil Woods, Mel Lewis, Lee Konitz and Michael Brecker among many others and with David Sanborn on the NBC series Night Music. Ted Rosenthal, who graduated from the Manhattan School of Music, is a faculty member of The New School/Mannes College of Music jazz program. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide Artists: Ted Rosenthal (piano) with; George Mraz (bass) and Al Foster (drums).
