Review by Waldemar Fontes

Night And Day, the 1977 album by Stephane Grappelly and His Quintet, is a timeless masterpiece that showcases the legendary jazz violinist at his best. The album features a collection of classic jazz standards, including the title track "Night And Day," "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," and "Sweet Georgia Brown," all of which are performed with impeccable precision and passion.

Grappelly's virtuosity on the violin is simply awe-inspiring, and his ability to seamlessly blend his instrument with the rest of the quintet is a testament to his mastery of the genre. The rhythm section, consisting of guitarist Diz Disley, bassist Len Skeat, and drummer Martin Taylor, provides a solid foundation for Grappelly's soaring solos, while the addition of pianist John Lewis adds a touch of elegance to the arrangements.

The album's standout track, "Nuages," is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Grappelly's ability to convey emotion through his playing. The delicate interplay between Grappelly's violin and Lewis' piano creates a sense of intimacy that is both captivating and moving.
