Jazz
Oscar Peterson Piano
Herb Ellis Guitar
Ray Brown Bass
This album--the title has been a misnomer since its initialrelease in 1957--was not recorded at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam but at the Civic Opera House in Chicago. That bit of trivia aside, this is an exceptional snapshot of the magicproduced by Oscar Peterson's mid-'50s trio. When guitarist Herb Ellis and bassist Ray Brown locked in with Peterson's piano, the three unfurled a tornado of musical ideas that wrapped bop, swing, popular balladry, and chamber music in highly complex, beautiful arrangements.
Brown and Ellis keep pace with Peterson's trademark velocity on hyper-acceleratedtakes on standards ("The Lady is a Tramp") and mid-tempo blues ("Bluesology"), moving between mainstream jazz ("I've Got the World On a String") and music that is quite advanced ("Budo"). Though Peterson would work in a trio format for much of his career, he seldom attained the heights reached by this ensemble, and AT THE CONCERTGEBOUW is one of the trio's finest offerings.
Although the music on this CD was originally said to be recorded in Europe, it actually comes from a Chicago concert, and the five additional selections (last issued on an LP shared with the Modern Jazz Quartet), supposedly performed in Chicago, are from an appearance in Los Angeles. But despite the geographical mixups, the music is consistently brilliant and often wondrous. The trio of Oscar Peterson, Herb Ellis, and Ray Brown had been together for over four years, and these would be among the threesome's last (and finest) recordings. The very tricky arrangements sandwiched remarkable solos, with pianist Peterson sounding especially inspired. Together with the Stratford Shakespearean CD of the previous year, this set features the trio at the peak of its powers. Highlights include "The Lady Is a Tramp," "Budo," "Daahoud," "Indiana," and "Joy Spring."
