Music reviews of Bolling: Suite for Flute & Jazz Piano Trio

Music Review: A wonderful and original composition
Rating: 5 Stars

This album contains the first pairing of flautist Jean Pierre Rampal and composer and jazz musician Claude Bolling. Rampal is renowned as the premier classical flautist. Bolling has received acclaim and awards as a composer, conductor, arranger and pianist.
The album contains some truly original and exciting jazz fusion. But where some great jazz requires an advanced degree in music to appreciate, this album is accessible. Yet, it is not the elevator jazz played on new age stations. It is more akin to The Dave Brubeck Five than Swing, the complex strains of Chick Corea or the the soft tones of Kenny G.

The album is aptly named. A Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio is exactly what is here. The album contains seven related, but contrasting songs. Tha album has a jazz underpinning over which Bolling and Rampal intertwine the classical flute with and jazz stylings. Sometimes, the music is of the counterpoint style, where the jazz piano and the classical flute have a discourse, each in its own style, but following the same musical theme. At other times, the two play the same melody in unison, yet continue to maintain their own style. And at other times, the flute and piano switch stylistic roles. Unique and enjoyable, this album is well worth listening to.

Description of Bolling: Suite for Flute & Jazz Piano Trio

The Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio was a true revolution in the classical world in the US when it was firs released on LP in 1976 . Firstly because Claude Bolling had the idea of mixing the greatest musical movement of the 20th century - jazz - with classical music. America's appreciation of this cross-breeding raised the Suite to head the hit-parade for two years and to be ranked in the Billboard for 10 years (530 weeks). Through this work, Claude Bolling can be considered as the creator of 'crossover music'. His musical partner, Jean-Pierre Rampal, is now esteemed as the great classical flautist of the 20th century.
