George Shearing Trio & Stephane Grappelli • The Reunion

 

 

Review by Ron Wynn
A wonderful duo release from '76 with pianist George Shearing collaborating with violinist Stephane Grappelli. Shearing's sessions are usually more introspective and light than upbeat and hot, but Grappelli's soaring, exuberant violin solos seem to put a charge into Shearing, who responds with some of his hottest playing in many years.

Reseña de Ron Wynn
Un maravilloso lanzamiento a dúo del ' 76 con el pianista George Shearing colaborando con el violinista Stephane Grappelli. Las sesiones de Shearing suelen ser más introspectivas y ligeras que optimistas y calientes, pero los exuberantes solos de violín de Grappelli parecen ponerle una carga a Shearing, quien responde con algunas de sus mejores interpretaciones en muchos años.
