Home :: Live in Columbia, Missouri
HOME: Live in Columbia, Missouri, is the new CD from Bruce Barth (piano) & Steve Wilson (saxophones) recorded live, in concert at the home of Barbara Tellerman & Allyn Sher on June 27, 2009. It features seven stellar selections including four Bruce Barth originals. This is the second release by the Jazz Series and first in four years, and becomes available nationwide on Tuesday, April 27. The Barth-Wilson "House Concert" signaled the start the 2009/2010 season and marked the beginning of the Jazz Series' 15th Anniversary Season.
The setting for the recording, a good-sized, warm and comfortable house with a perfect living room, was perfect. In addition to the Barth originals, HOME includes Cole Porter's "All Through The Night," taken from the hit show Anything Goes; an up-to-the-minute reading of "Sweet & Lovely," a standard; and a spectacular interpretation of Bud Powell's "Wail." Wilson plays mostly alto saxophone but also contributes stellar soprano saxophone on the date.
The new release, a gorgeously packaged CD, includes liner notes written by veteran and well-respected jazz critic and author Bob Blumenthal. The Jazz Series felt the quality of the music called for someone of his stature - and the jazz aficionado did not disappoint.
The CD is available for purchase below & only directly through the "We Always Swing"® Jazz Series.
