Review
by Scott Yanow
Stan
Getz's final recording, a two-CD live set of duets with pianist Kenny
Barron that was cut just three months before his death, finds the great
tenor in surprisingly creative form despite an occasional shortness of
breath. Getz's tone is as beautiful as ever and he does not spare
himself on this often exquisite set. His version of Charlie Haden's
"First Song" is a highlight but none of the 14 performances are less
than great. A brilliant farewell recording by a masterful jazzman.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
La
última grabación de Stan Getz, un conjunto de dos CDs en directo de
duetos con el pianista Kenny Barron que se grabó sólo tres meses antes
de su muerte, encuentra al gran tenor en una forma sorprendentemente
creativa a pesar de una ocasional falta de aliento. El tono de Getz es
tan bello como siempre y no escatima en este conjunto a menudo
exquisito. Su versión de "First Song" de Charlie Haden es un momento
culminante, pero ninguna de las 14 interpretaciones deja de ser
magnífica. Una brillante grabación de despedida de un jazzista
magistral.
