Lalo Schifrin – New Fantasy

Lalo Schifrin – New Fantasy

Superlatives – without them the relationship between Verve and the Argentinean pianist, composer and arranger Lalo Schifrin would not be possible.

The liner notes speak of the outstanding musical compositions, the outstanding musicianship displayed by the ensemble (Jerome Richardson! Kai Winding! Grady Tate!), but especially the one key to excellence: The genius of Lalo Schifrin.

The albums released under his own name are always a tiny little too perfect for my taste – but always full of elegance and surprising twists.
