Review by Kevin Venner

The George Shearing Quintet's album "East of the Sun West of the Moon" is a masterpiece of jazz music. Released in 1956, this album showcases the tremendous talent of the legendary pianist and his bandmates. The album features a collection of classic jazz standards, including "September in the Rain," "Moonlight Becomes You," and "I'll Remember April," all of which are performed with Shearing's signature style and grace.

The album is characterized by Shearing's masterful piano playing, which is complemented by the smooth and melodic playing of his bandmates. The quintet creates a rich and vibrant sound that is both sophisticated and accessible. The arrangements are intricate and complex, yet never overwhelming or showy.

What sets this album apart from others in the genre is the sheer beauty of the music. The quintet's performances are elegant, understated, and emotionally resonant. The music is both soothing and invigorating, and it captures the essence of jazz at its finest.
