Five Brothers "Festive Minor" NoorderzonFestival 2007

FIVE BROTHER recorded on the `noorderzonfestival met speciale guests Jan Menu bariton saxophone

"Five brothers" played Festive Minor composed by Gerry Mulligan.
recorded by vidimah NoorderzonFestival. 23 aug07.
Back from oblivian
Five Brothers is a song from the repertoire of the Gerry Mulligan/ Bob Brookmeyer Quartet.
This was one of the many quartets lead by baritone saxophonist Gerry Mulligan in the fifties and sixties.
The music was extremely popular and Mulligan and his people played on most of the world's greatest jazz stages.
Nowadays the music has almost completely passed into oblivion and is hardly ever played,
but the saxophonists Laurens Blinxma and bassist Bert van Erk think it is worth the effort to breathe new life
into this music and in addition have included some numbers of their own

huge jazz following of us jazz in EU ("common market" they called it then) in fifties and sixties, lots of US jazzists moved there, of went to earn a living. Film "Mondo Cane" exemplified jass prowess of EU, and dudes like Lars Gullen, on Bari, got through, and were almost unknown here. 'Blue Note" records picked up a huge slack though.

Ik mis helaas al jaren het Noordezonfestival; dit is van internationale klasse. De bariton is van een Lars Gullin - kwaliteit. Super!
