Guus Janssen – Dancing Series Dutch pianist Janssen leads a mini orchestra of big-name improvisers in a set of quirky composed, modern-classical sounding jazz pieces. At first, this seems more serious than other Amsterdam-style stuff, but there’s a lot of sly humor beneath even the most serious parts. 1. Plinking start, followed by very fast solos 2. Delicate piano under trombone solo, then things get more abstract *3. Quiet start belies the unrestrained frenzy that starts up ~3 min in. *4. Galloping fanfare fades into mystery *5. Bouncy straight jazz 6. Acoustic guitar rumblings *7. Bleating brass leads to speedy groove **8. Fun jazzy groove Ben B 11/10/04 | ||
