Recorded live at Jordan Hall, The New England Conservatory Of Music, Boston, Massachusetts on October 13, 1998
Fred Hersch - solo piano
CMJ (6/7/99, p.35) - "...consolidates the repertoire of his recent 'concept' albums into one cohesive whole. It's as if Hersch is explaining his intentions and motivations of the last five years on this album's nine tracks".
Includes liner notes by Fred Hersch.
Fred Hersch, called by Downbeat "one of the small handful of brilliant musicians of his generation," delivers a performance of great feeling, lively wit and infectious good humor on his latest Nonesuch album: a live recording from Boston's Jordan Hall, captured on October 13, 1998. In the process, Hersch takes Irving Berlin's advice - as urged by the album title - in what he acknowledges to be one of the best concerts of his career.
Two-time Grammy-nominee Hersch's most recent Nonesuch solo recordings have centered on "songbook" CDs of compositions by Billy Strayhorn, Rodgers & Hammerstein, and Thelonious Monk. Let Yourself Go forms an eclectic extension of the genre with a program of traditional folk song and film music, art song, classic popular song from the likes of Weill, Berlin and Carmichael and original work, along with treatments of Joni Mitchell and Thelonious Monk. In a review of the recorded concert, the Boston Globe described Hersch as "a pristine technician with a poet's soul - a pair of qualities that combine to especially dazzling effect in a jazz pianist. He investigates the shape of rhythm and the mathematics of motion as graciously as he coaxes the layers of feeling from a bittersweet melody…His approach to balladry evokes complex emotional landscapes with a minimum of sentimentality."
An honors graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music, Fred Hersch underpins his sure feeling for jazz with a thoroughgoing command of classical music. Since relocating from his native Cincinnati, he has spent the last two decades on the East Coast. In that time he has taught at the New England Conservatory of Music, formed his own trio, released over 15 albums and been in consistent demand from numerous jazz masters, including saxophonists Joe Henderson, Stan Getz and Jane Ira Bloom; bassist Charlie Haden and clarinetist Eddie Daniels. An active and prominent advocate in the fight against AIDS, he has also produced and performed on two benefit recording projects for Classical Action. |
