Greetje Kauffeld & The Paul Kuhn Trio & Paulo Morello My Shining Hour
Double 45 RPM STEREO Audiophile LP.
DELUXE EDITION: THE COMPLETE SESSION RE-MIXED AND RE-MASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS
On ''My Shining Hour'' a splendid team has come together to pay tribute to this giant of American's jazz history. The two protagonists look back to four decades of joint sessions and stage experiences, the doyen of German piano jazz Paul Kuhn and the brilliant and warmhearted voice of Greetje Kauffeld.
Arlen's music is timeless. This fact is vividly demonstrated by two young guests, who Kauffeld and Kuhn's trio (Paul G. Ulrich, bass and Willy Ketzer, drums) invited to the stage, when they performed at the Muddy's Club, Weinheim to record their CD during two evening sessions. Paulo Morello (guitar) and Kim Barth (saxophone, flute) have caused some excitement with their German-Danish-Brazilian project ''The Bossa Nova Legends'' within the jazz as well as the Latin circuit. Bossa Nova made in Germany with famous names of Rio's musical past - these tropically swinging vibrations are the background for some moments on this recording, displaying an airy, carefree magic full of surprising intros and intermezzi. Different generations who are contributing to a classical excursion: Moments of glory, a real ''Shining Hour'' for Greetje Kauffeld's rich catalogue.
