Free Music Notes for Romare Bearden RevealedFree Music Review: Awesome CD Hit: 5 Stars
I suggest spending some time browsing the works of Bearden online while listening. This isn't a LIVE CD as the Amazon listing would suggest. RecordedÊJune 23 - 25, 2003 at Clinton Studios, New York NY. This disc, comprised entirely of newly recorded music, was produced by saxophonist Branford Marsalis in celebration ofÊThe Art of Romare Bearden, the major retrospective that opens at the National Gallery of Art inÊWashington,ÊD.C.Êon September 14 and subsequently travels to museums inÊSan Francisco,ÊDallas,ÊNew York and Atlanta during 2004 and 2005.
Free Music Review: I love it!!! Hit: 5 Stars
I'm more into Wynton (cause i play trumpet) but i got this album cause i like Branford a lot too, don't get me wrong. But i heard Wynton was in a few tracks on this album. so i went to borders book store where they had it set out to listen to... so i listened to it! AND IT WAS AWESOME! so i bought it, it has to be one of my favorite CD's i own. Please do not listen to the other guys who posted here saying this is a bad CD. IT'S NOT!!! TRY IT OUT!!! AFTER THAT, BUY IT!!!!!!!!
Free Music Review: badness Hit: 5 Stars
This will be short. It is worth the price of this album just to hear the Branford and Harry Connick Jr. duet Carolina Shout. That being said, all of the other tracks on this album are excellent. From Jungle Blues to Doug Wamble's solo guitar on Autumn Lamp, with this record you get a pile of blues and at the same time gain an appreciation for Romare Breaden's art. A must have. Branford keeps outdoing himself.
Free Music Review: Adaptation at its finest Hit: 5 Stars
Reading the negative reviews has prompted me to write and I am wondering if these reviewers read Robert O'Meally's liner notes for each piece of Bearden's art. This album is a brilliant fusion of two art forms. Each track masterfully adapts to a title of art. The creation of visual music is crafted perfectly on Bearden Revealed.
Free Music Review: Great album....! Highly recommended... Hit: 5 Stars
Good stuff... Highly complex and entertaining music. Branford does it again...
