•

Genre: Jazz Label: TCB Music CD: TCB 2172 Price Code: Q Standard Jewel Case

QTY

Lionel Hampton began to make a name for himself by being one-quarter of the famous Benny Goodman Quartet with Teddy Wilson and Gene Krupa. He remained there for four years

before starting his own big band, especially famous during the forties. Recordings like “Flying Home,” “How High the Moon,” and “Hey-Baba-Re-Bop” served as a foundation for Hampton’s world fame.

• The band on this particular album was, like all its successors, rather short-lived. However, Europe was fortunate enough to enjoy a first extended tour marking the presence of artists like Gigi Gryce, Clifford Brown, Art Farmer, Quincy Jones, and Jimmy Cleveland, all of them crack players on the verge of their own fame.

• A serious, long-awaited document of a giant musician—memories are made of this!

Ari Roland has appeared hundreds of times at Smalls, more than any other musician in its history. His walking bass lines are thick and dark-edged, his arco solos are dense with musical ideas, and his original compositions are full of twists and surprises.

• Roland distinguished himself early as the sole bassist for grand master pianist Frank Hewitt.

In 2007, the Ari Roland Quartet received international acclaim while representing the US in the American Music Abroad program. In 2008, saxophonist Chris Byars will carry that distinction, leading the same ensemble.

Selling Points “Ma’a lot” is the plural of the Hebrew word “Ma’alah,” which means “stages.” Psalms 120-134 form a cycle of songs intended for use by travelers en route to the great pilgrimage feasts in Jerusalem—Passover, Shavuot, and Sukkoth.

• These psalms express the confidence and hope of a worshipping people, but more than that, they reveal the Israelite’s social and devotional life. The emphasis on family, prosperity, and brotherly love are all a natural part of the festive seasons, when families participate in the thanksgiving celebrations in Jerusalem.

• This is the first globally available CD recording of these songs of pilgrimage in their original language, featuring the original compositions of Waltraud Rennenbaum, who has composed ten of the sixteen pieces performed here.
