4.0 out of 5 stars The Getz experience, April 19, 2005

Play for fun "playforfun" (Lincolnwood, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vintage Getz Vol 2 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Donald Maggin said in his biography of Getz:

"Nature provided Stan Getz with abundant talents for music: perfect pitch, an uncanny feel for rhythmic nuance, great sight-reading skills, and a photographic memory. These attributes, however, were not what made him a great artist. The essence of his art was the ability to create fresh and beautiful melodies, to improvise; he was a giant of instantaneous composition...He made his conversations with his listeners particularly moving, because he added to his gift for melody a mastery of a wide range of sound--whispers, cries, shouts, purrs, wails. And he always projected his notes with a personal timbre, a poignant ache that penetrate to the listener's marrow."

This volume 1 and volume 2 illustrate these thoughts by Maggin. Recommeded.
