Stan Kenton - Opus In Pastels

claraeusebio98

Review by Clara Eusebio Gomes Clara

Opus In Pastels by Stan Kenton is a timeless masterpiece that showcases the genius of the legendary jazz composer and pianist. The album is a collection of 10 tracks that feature Kenton's signature big band sound, with intricate arrangements and dynamic compositions that highlight the incredible musicianship of his ensemble.

From the opening track, "Opus In Pastels," it is clear that Kenton has created something truly special. The piece begins with a hauntingly beautiful melody played by the saxophones, before building to a climactic crescendo that showcases the full power of the orchestra. This is followed by "Across The Alley From The Alamo," a swinging number that features a lively trumpet solo by Maynard Ferguson.

Other highlights include "Lover Man," a soulful ballad that showcases the exquisite vocals of Ann Richards, and "The Thrill Is Gone," a bluesy number that features a stunning saxophone solo by Bill Perkins. Throughout the album, Kenton's arrangements are both intricate and accessible, making the music both challenging and enjoyable for the listener.
