出品厂牌：Blue Note Records 音乐风格：Jazz, Post Bop 专辑时长：51:18 min 专辑介绍： Bill Charlap出生于1966年的纽约市，是著名的爵士乐钢琴家。他来自一个音乐背景，母亲桑迪斯图尔特是一个歌手，他的父亲马克是百老汇作曲家，因此他在很小的时候就对音乐产生了兴趣。在他3岁的时候就开始弹钢琴，后来他开始研究古典音乐，但仍对爵士乐最感兴趣。在拥挤的爵士领域，他被广泛认为是世界上最好的爵士乐钢琴家。 2004年，钢琴手Bill Charlap的三重奏发表了向作曲家Leonard Bernstein致敬的作品，《Somewhere : The Songs of Leonard Bernstein》。2005年，Charlap再度发表了向美国伟大作曲家致敬的作品，这回对象是George Gershwin。再往上推Charlap其他的作品，也几乎都是标準曲目走向。因此，称Charlap为当今传统爵士乐的捍卫先锋，应当不为过。 只是这回Bill Charlap作得更彻底。除了原先的钢琴三重奏〈贝斯手Peter Washington和鼓手Kenny Washington〉外，他另邀请了四位管乐手，噢不，应该说四位伟大的爵士管乐大师共襄盛举。他们分别是萨克斯风手Phil Woods和Frank Wess、伸缩号手Slide Hampton，以及小号手Nicholas Payton。这样的阵容，说实话，真的会让爵士乐迷兴奋非常呀！ 从另外一个角度看，专辑名称叫做「美国精神」，所以真正的主角其实应该是George Gershwin。而事实也是如此，细听过整张专辑，七位硬底子音乐家在詮释每一首不知已被多少音乐家詮释过的标準曲时，可以感受到他们在细节上十分投入，试图并成功地从这些标準曲里找出不同的趣味。在《I Was So Young (You Were So Beautiful)》这首纯粹钢琴三重奏表现的曲子里，Bill Charlap的钢琴细腻且精準的旋律表现实在让人舒服。Kenny Washington的鼓刷似有若无，也完全表达出「回忆总是最美」的哀愁。而《Bess, You is My Woman Now》一轨里，Phil Woods的萨克斯风依旧沉鬱跌宕；在《How Long Has This Been Going On?》里，Frank Wess则表现出了长者的睿智与年轻人捉摸不来的人生体验。当然，碍於篇幅，另外二位乐手的表现同样精采。 听标準曲目最有趣的地方就在於比较不同的詮释手法，利害的乐手可以赋予老曲子新感受，而重点就在於细节与情感的拿捏处理。这些乐手在这张专辑里，确实秀出了他们与眾不同的才气。

Reviews: 引用 Bill Charlap, a versatile pianist based in swing who is also a longtime member of the Phil Woods Quintet, pays tribute to the great George Gershwin throughout this likable set. Although some of the ten Gershwin songs are slightly modernized, the music is very much in the tradition. There are up to four horns on some numbers, with the best individual moments coming from veteran tenor Frank Wess on "How Long Has This Been Going On" (sounding a bit like Paul Gonsalves), trombonist Slide Hampton on "A Foggy Day," and altoist Woods whenever he plays. Charlap's longtime trio with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington is featured on "Who Cares?," and Charlap takes the brief closing "Soon" as an unaccompanied solo. Nothing all that revolutionary or revelatory occurs but the music is pleasing overall, swinging and creative within its boundaries. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide Pianist Bill Charlap is passionate about the Great American Songbook and the artists who created its core foundation. His third concept album to focus on a single iconic composer sets its sights on George Gershwin. In league with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington, his longtime trio mates, Charlap performs bracing interpretations of some of the master's most beloved work, displaying his superb abilities as an inventive improviser as well as a superior stylist who can extract poetry from a straightforward reading of a song's melody. Granted, this trio has a lot to work with; Gershwin's magnificently crafted songs can stand by themselves as self-contained works of art. But Charlap and company's affection and respect for the material is apparent at every turn, providing further wonderment. The trio is aided by the presence of legendary saxophonists Phil Woods and Frank Wess, the virtuosic trumpeter Nicholas Payton, and the estimable trombonist Slide Hampton, who add tonal heft and variety to a number of tracks. With his fourth consecutive gem on Blue Note Records, Charlap demonstrates his uncanny ability to produce consistently intriguing albums. He's fast becoming a national treasure. ~ Steve Futterman, Barnes & Noble Personnel: Bill Charlap - piano Phil Woods - alto saxophone Frank Wess - tenor saxophone Nicholas Payton - trumpet Slide Hampton - trombone Peter Washington - double bass Kenny Washington - drums 买鞋子哪个网站好？首选中国最大的正品鞋网商城(http://shoes.weixiaodian.com/)、 网上正品鞋城(http://u.weixiaodian.com/shoe/)。微店网页版请从http://121.weixiaodian.com登录：手把手教你如何免费申请开通微店、怎样经营微店及如何用微店赚钱。看笑话，上爱哈啦(http://www.aihala.com/)。
