1957
From the back cover: All of the great potentialities of up-to-date recording techniques are realized in this superb recorded collection of the music of "DAVID ROSE IN HI FIddles."
Dave's resplendent orchestra plays magnificently for this stellar record event – and its glorious sound has been captured sumptuously. Soar- ing, darting strings and singing woodwinds and gleaming brass combine lushly and impressively here – the whole is a holiday of exciting possibilities for the recording engineer and the problems of recording have been solved with wondrous results. The vividness of the recorded sound helps make these some of the finest of David Rose's recordings to date, helps add an extra thrill to the listening experience. And, the thrill is one which will last, because it is compounded of the stuff of perfection itself.
Dave has chosen wisely and well in lining up the music presented here. Much of the material exploits one or another musical effect or section of the orchestra in order to display clearly how dazzlingly "hi" is the "fi." Most of the music will be quite new to your ears- music you'll find refreshingly delightful. The popular favorites which appear have been decked out in chic, bright new dress of a bewitching cast.
Here, you'll find the new instrumental novelty favorite THE PORTUGUESE WASHERWOMEN, an evocative musical portrait of BORDEAUX, the winsome PAM PAM, the memorable ROMAN HOLIDAY.
Here, you'll find COOL TANGO, a delightful compound of a Latin dance tempo and the elements of jazz – the giddy BANJO AND FIDDLE -the striking show-piece for brass: HOLIDAY FOR TROMBONES-the warm LOVABLE CLOWN.
Here, you' 'll find the virtuosic SATAN AND THE POLAR BEAR, the whimsical A FRENCHMAN IN NEW YORK, the charming THE DANCING CANE, and Nacio Herb Brown's colorful, tempestuous DANCE OF FURY (which derives from the score for the well-remembered M-G-M film "The Kissing Bandit").
Here, you'll find music to remember-performances to delight in again and again-and superb sound reproduction. These are the three principal ingredients which have gone into the creation of this album. Thus, we know you will find "DAVID ROSE IN HI FIddles" offers the ultimate in listening pleasure!
