Product Description
The Jazz Nutcracker, the first suite on this CD, dazzles, sparkles, and soars. It's Ellington at his most elegant and witty reinterpreting the Tchaikovsky melodies. The fusion of two musical geniuses has created a festive new holiday classic that deserves to be widely heard. I've always loved the Waltz of the Flowers--and Ellington's version, the Waltz of the Floreadores, is just sublime. But the other pieces, like the Peanut Brittle Brigade (the march of the toy soldiers) and the Volga Vouty (the Russian dance) are just pure fun. Ellington and Billy Strayhorn must have had a blast composing this music--and their joy shines through. By the way, if you ever get the chance to hear this music live--or better yet, to see it danced to--JUMP at the chance! I've had the privilege of hearing it played by the Howard U Jazz Ensemble and danced by a company from New York. There are two tracks you can hear live that are not on the CD--the Spanish dance and the dance of the Snowflakes. But the CD is a delight to jazz up your holiday season--and to enjoy year round.
