Исполнитель: Bill HolmanНазвание альбома: The Fabulous Bill Holman, His Octet & Orchestra Год выпуска: 2006, Fresh Sound Records FSRCD 2219 Формат файлов: Mp3, 320 Размер архива: 172 Mb Скачать с: rusfolder "Bill Holman is one of the most amazing talents of this era. His music is natural; he tolerates no force or hostility in his jazz. One of the composers of modern day linear writing, he has already affected the necessary change in the growth of orchestrated jazz. Holman’s dry wit is one of his most entertaining attributes. His music, though technically serious, is a mirror of his happy philosophy––at times even humorous. He enjoys a unanimous affection from all in jazz, both musically and personally," said Stan Kenton.
According to Holman: "Melodically, I try to write human, singable lines with natural curves, sometimes trying for an improvised feel... Rhythmically, I use a lot of syncopation and off-beat accents in the ensembles as a band seems to be able to get together easier on off beats than on on beats." Liner notes
