Free Music Review: Young jazz fiddler just out of the gates
Hit: 4 Stars
Aaron Weinstein was still a teenager when he recorded this CD in 2005. He's an excellent jazz violinist, still cutting his teeth, but able to swing and improvise like a pro. His youth and inexperience are probably reflected most in the slower ballad numbers like A HANDFUL OF STARS where he sticks pretty close to the melody. He can tear apart up-tempo numbers, though, and IF DREAMS COME TRUE is a real roof-raiser. Bucky and John Pizzarelli offer solid support, and what a treat (and learning experience) it must have been to have Houston Person guest on tenor sax on a few numbers. Will Weinstein be the heir apparent to Stephane Grappelli? With continued dedication to his instrument and the art form - and a little bit of luck - Weinstein should become a well-known performer on swing-oriented CDs and concert/club appearances. All the best to him.
