Music reviews of Silver Screen Serenade

Music Review: I was hooked from the first track
Rating: 5 Stars

I was pleasantly surprised with this latest CD from Jenny Baker. Being in the music business, I was prepared to listen with a somewhat distracted attitude. Upon hearing the first track from "Far and Away," I was hooked. Not only are these riveting arrangements, but the repertoire is unusual and therefore not done to death. Of course everyone knows "Over the Rainbow" and might say "not another one of these" but Jenny's performance is enhanced with a thought-provoking new arrangement. Also not to be missed is Jascha Heifetz' version of "American in Paris," included here. Not many of the current generation will be familiar with with the great violinist Heifetz; now we are re-introduced to what he could do as arranger and performer and we also get one of the greatest monuments from the Gershwin playlist. Jenny's performance here with talented pianist Jared Oaks, carries just the right balance of jazz, pizazz and reflective moments. My personal favorite, however, has to be the "Transylvanian Lullaby" from the Mel Brooks movie Young Frankenstein. That piece brought depth and soul to an otherwise "fluff" of a movie; in listening to its original full version on Jenny's CD, I was transported back to the movie and imagining Marty Feldman playing it in all his Igorian glory. Get this CD just for that selection. With new and innovative arrangements, lucious full orchestrations, this is a must-have in anyone's collection.
