Jazz for aficionados In A Sentimental Mood [Abdullah Ibrahim] :Excellent. Ibrahim was always a big fan of Ellington. I have some of his stuff when he was known as Dollar Brand.Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados Anyone who says he loves the smell of of Bombay should not be allowed to even mention Coltrane!!I think Duke Ellington exposed 'world music' years ago. He went on a world tour searching, and came home empty handed.Where be the Blues?Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados I think it means the same. I don't mean in any particular performance. She was an Opera superstar and acted the part 24/7.Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados Johnson's setting was better, and truer to the Opera, but that was from a movie.Callas' persona was better than her voice. I have her 'Tosca', love it.Cheers | |

Jazz for aficionados I like the usual stuff from, Mozart, Rossini, and Puccini. ’Tosca’ being my first love. I like the highlights. Full blown Opera on a recording can be tedious. Can't forget 'Carmen' by Julia Migenes Johnson.Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados All the Opera I like, has one theme, "Keep your cotton picking paws off my woman." Just like Muddy Waters.But Opera makes you cry, Muddy don't.Cheer | |

Jazz for aficionados English translation is the worst thing you can do to Italian Opera. Once we know what's being said, it distracts from the beauty of the music. Takes it from the mysterious and glorious to the mundane.Cheers | |
