PLANKENSTEINER HELGA & MICHAEL LOSCH - CD JELLY ROLL PLAYS MORTON

Popis - JELLY ROLL PLAYS MORTON:
This release explores one of the legendary figures of the origins of Jazz with splendid sensitivity. Ferdinand 'Jelly Roll' Morton was a pianist, composer, leader and singer, and the very person who had 'Originator of jazz-stomp-swing' printed on his business card. 'Jelly Roll Plays Morton' deserves careful listening; it is a work in which reflection on an important glimpse of African American musical history is fruitfully mixed with the moods of today.
