The Modern Jazz Quartet - Blues At Carnegie Hall

amelielebel81

Review by Amélie B. LeBel

Blues At Carnegie Hall by the Modern Jazz Quartet is a live recording that captures the essence of the group's unique sound and style. The album features the quartet's signature blend of blues, jazz, and classical music, all performed with impeccable musicianship and artistry.

From the opening notes of "Bags' Groove" to the closing chords of "Night in Tunisia," the quartet's performance is a masterclass in improvisation and collaboration. The interplay between pianist John Lewis, vibraphonist Milt Jackson, bassist Percy Heath, and drummer Connie Kay is seamless and dynamic, with each member contributing to the overall sound and feel of the music.

The album's standout tracks include "Bluesology," a bluesy number that showcases Jackson's virtuosic vibraphone playing, and "Django," a tribute to the legendary guitarist Django Reinhardt that features Lewis' intricate piano lines and Kay's propulsive drumming.

Connie Kay's solo on this is simply a wonder. How can a musician play so simple and so expressive.
