This CD combines two excellent LPs from the late 1970s, with Jones taking a scintillating trip through the compositional legacy of bop, focusing on tunes by Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and Thelonious Monk. Bop Redux, the earliest of the recordings, is a trio with bassist George Duvivier and drummer Ben Riley. Groovin' High has four tracks by a stellar quintet with Thad Jones (Hank's brother) on cornet, tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse, bassist Sam Jones (no relation), and drummer Mickey Roker. Sam, Thad, and Rouse recorded "I Mean You" and "Jackie-ing" together with Monk on 5 by Monk by 5, and it's fascinating to hear them cover the same tunes with so different a pianist. These musicians were all distinguished veterans when these dates were recorded, and the results are exemplary bop, played with invention and an almost casual precision. --Stuart Broomer

    5 out of 5 stars Be bop master class.......2003-04-23

    This album is nothing less than a master class in bebop improvisation. Hank Jones has so much talent, chops, musicality that be bop seems an easy language in his hands. This style of music is so vital after 60 years. Modal, free, third stream, avant garde, fusion things didn't thrown a bit dust on this music. The genius of Charlie Parker, Dizzie Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell (and I could continue for hours...) is immortal. If you want to know what bebop is about, and how to play it with true musicality, just listen to this album (they're two actually packed in one cd). It's a late seventies album, but the flame was still alive. And still it is ....
    Listen, and listen, and listen, and listen, and listen again..........

    5 out of 5 stars Fantasic.......2006-09-26

    This is the first time I have heard Callas speak outside of operatic performance, and even in her normal speaking voice you Listen. It is amazing to hear this passionate teacher share her love of music, and in mid-sentence come out with examples of her singing - like a higher power.
    I highly recommend this to true music lovers and musicians.

    2 out of 5 stars Sorry, not that impressed........2006-09-21

    If you are a voice major, then buy this set. It is more instructional perhaps in that sense. But for true enjoyment? It is just not for me.

    Take the money you would spend on this set and buy the LA DIVINA CALLAS set. Well worth the money if you want to hear the divine Miss Callas. There are also numerous EMI classic sets out there for her opera performances that I think would be much more of an enjoyable listening experience than the Julliard recordings.

    5 out of 5 stars MUST have 4 Callas fans and singers!.......2005-12-11

    This is a treasure recording! Totally an amazing! I'M THRILLED!!!
    My favorite part is the "Cortigiani, vil razza dannata" lesson! It is interesting how Callas is teaching Baritone part and she is absolutely amazing! I cry almost everytime I listen to this track. You will learn a lot! A MUST have!

    5 out of 5 stars AN INVITATION INTO CALLAS' WORLD.......1999-05-17

    Long acknowledged for its contribution to the teaching of singing, Callas at Juillard is indeed worth a listen. Recorded during her sessions at Juillard, Callas goes through the sung repertoire ranging from Mozart to Bellini to Verdi with both roles that she was famed for as well as roles that she had never sung. What is special about this record is that each session covering an aria is paired up with the same aria as performed previously by Callas if possible. This allows us to compare the differences that may have resulted in the gap of the performances. Callas shows us the insight she had gained as a student while she took a sabatical from the stage and takes this as an opportunity to impart her experience and knowledge to the students. Covering arias like "Non mi dir" from Don Giovanni, Norma's "Casta Diva" which was her calling card, to even the veil song for Princess Eboli in Don Carlos and even Rigoletto's aria, Callas reveals her natural instinct and understanding of roles and how they are to be sung. At a time while she was not in her vocal prime, Callas astounds when she accompanies the students demonstrating a phrase or two. Her voice still shows the beauty and tenacity that she was known for, at times matched that of her voice at its peak. Peppering the sessions with comments, she shows the students what is done and why it is done and at times, even shows her sense of humour. This recording is as precious as any can get and more so than any of her records, show Callas at her most relaxed and natural and thereby at her best. Combined with John Ardoin's book, this CD is unmatched for its value and worth as a study guide.

    Album Description

    Killer Whales is the first commercial release by guitarist Jon Bare and his band, the Killer Whales. It was recorded virtually live in the studio, combining the raw experimental spirit of the 60's with a 90's state-of-the-art cutting edge. Killer Whales features the awesome bass playing of Tim Bogert (Jeff Beck, Rod Stewart, Vanilla Fudge) and the impressive drumming of Chet McCracken (Doobie Brothers). This album captures all of the spontaneity and excitement of the power-trio's live performance. Jon Bare, one of the hottest new guitarists on the L.A. music scene, is the producer and central creative force behind the album.

    5 out of 5 stars Smokin, Smokin, Smokin.......2004-05-26

    You're probably familiar with Tim Bogert (Jeff Beck & Vanilla Fudge) and Chet McCracken (Doobie Brothers) but Jon Bare is the driving force behind this "Killer" CD. He's an excellent guitarist (on par with anyone you can think of) and the songwriting is terrific... We've all heard uninteresting songs written by great guitar players - but you won't find that on this CD. The songs showcase the virtuosity of each player without being indulgent. Besides Bare and Bogert, McCracken really impresses - you didn't hear a hint of this playing in his Doobie Brothers days. But don't take my word for it, listen to "Be Young," "I Got The Blues," and "Spacey" and you'll be blown away.

              having seen Master Class on Broadway, i was excited to hear this CD. To actually hear Maria Callas herself giving instruction, teaching and revealing her remarkably interesting personality is a joy. Then of course the music is stunning. I highly recommend this for a unique experience.

              5 out of 5 stars Excellent example for musical teaching.......1999-05-21

              When I first listened to that CD, i was excited to hear Maria Callas teaching and indeed she was one of the biggest artists ever in Opera History. The way she interpretates the Arias in unique and very easily you can hear that all the students had big problems to follow her example. What I liked as well was her Humour and on the other hand the strict way of teaching, what you can hear very good in this CD. Even for me as a trained Opera-Singer is this CD a very good interpretation-Class for futur roles.Its a must for every singer to have these Masterclass-CDs.
