Dorothy Donegan • Live at the Floating Jazz Festival 1992

 

Dorothy Donegan (April 6, 1922 — May 19, 1998) was a classically trained jazz pianist primarily known for performing in the stride piano and boogie-woogie style - She also played bop, swing jazz, and classical music - Obituaries for her argued that her flamboyant personality, tendency to mix unrelated genres in the same concert, and willingness to do lounge music may have caused her to be undervalued in jazz circles.
The program presented on this CD runs like a typical concert performance - It sounds as if it was taken from a single concert - Great songs such as "When i Fall in Love", "Body and Soul", "Saga Stage Strut" are included on this album - This is how one would have heard Dorothy at a typical concert.

Dorothy Donegan (6 de abril de 1922 — 19 de mayo de 1998) fue una pianista de jazz de formación clásica conocida principalmente por tocar el piano stride y el estilo boogie-woogie; también tocaba bop, swing jazz y música clásica.Los obituarios de ella argumentaban que su personalidad extravagante, su tendencia a mezclar géneros no relacionados en el mismo concierto y su disposición a hacer música lounge pueden haberla hecho infravalorada en los círculos del jazz.
El programa presentado en este CD funciona como una actuación típica de un concierto, suena como si hubiera sido tomado de un solo concierto, grandes canciones como "When i Fall in Love", "Body and Soul", "Saga Stage Strut" están incluidas en este álbum. Así es como uno habría escuchado a Dorothy en un concierto típico.
