This is Keith Jarrett's most accomplished collection of classical
compositions yet, seated squarely in the American East Coast
neo-classical tradition of Samuel Barber, David Diamond, Irving Fine,
etc. Jarrett's writing for strings is masterful here; the lines move
and interweave instead of being shoveled on as in some pieces of the
'70s, and the compositions have shape and direction. Most of all,
they share a common feeling of reflection and an unabashed
willingness to let the instrumental soloists sing. "Elegy for Violin
and String Orchestra" is a particularly gorgeous and inspired piece
of music, the "Adagio for Oboe and String Orchestra" is not far
behind, and "Bridge of Light for Viola and Orchestra" transfers
Jarrett's classical idiom to a full chamber orchestra, now with
overtones of late-period Vaughan Williams. Jarrett himself plays the
piano on his "Sonata for Violin and Piano," whose third movement
hearkens back to the repetitive grooves of the solo concerts. Three
of the four works date from 1984, while Bridge of Light was written
in 1990 -- and in the orchestral pieces, ECM has given conductor
Thomas Crawford and the excellent Fairfield Orchestra glowing sound.
Though these works have nothing to do with jazz per se, all Jarrett
buffs should investigate this music on its own terms.

We are looking for quality sites in Europe and US, to be afilliated
on. Remember, we are not in it for the creds, but for the spreading
of quality music - we just want to get our releases out to the ppl
that wants/needs it. More pre sites fills this purpose.
