The Philadelphia-born tenor saxophonist Benny Golson is one of the most accomplished jazz writers, and this recording celebrates his compositional genius, as well as his underrated tenor sax sound. Backed by the late trumpeter Art Farmer, a rhythm section featuring bassist Ron Carter, Jazz Messenger alumnus trombonist Curtis Fuller, and a string orchestra, Golson hosts special guest Shirley Horn on the wistful, honey-toned title track and tackles some of his ageless hits. The midtempo, modal-bridged "Killer Joe," "Along Came Betty," and the ballad "Are You Real?" still ring with their vintage hard-bop edge and yet sound entirely contemporary. Golson's early numbers, "Blue Walk" and "Out of the Past," likewise still swing, and his 10-minute classical piece, "On Gossamer Wings" (performed by pianist Lara Downes) reveals the full range of his eclectic musicality. He logged crucial time in the 1950s with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, cofounded the Jazztet with Farmer, and was a close friend of John Coltrane. --Eugene Holley Jr.

Product Description
For over 45 years, Benny Golson has been one of the architects of jazz. His compositions have contributed to the songbooks of many groups and leaders, from Miles Davis to Quincy Jones. Now, with some of the legends of jazz, Benny revisits some of his biggest hits, with some new ones as well, including the premiere of Benny's classical solo piano composition, "On Gossamer Wings", performed by Lara Downes. Featuring Ron Carter, Mulgrew Miller, Art Farmer, Curtis Fuller, and a rare guest appearance by Shirley Horn, performing the first songs for which Benny has composed lyrics, backed by a string orchestra.

Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08

The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!

I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.

The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

One Day, Forever featuring Shirley Horn, Art Farmer.......2001-03-16

Arkadia Records releases One Day, Forever the 4th recording from saxophonist, composer and arranger Benny Golson CD FEATURES SHIRLEY HORN, ART FARMER, RON CARTER, MULGREW MILLER, AND THE PREMIERE RECORDING OF A CLASSICAL SOLO PIANO COMPOSITION

At an age when most artists are thinking of retiring, Benny Golson continues to be a prolific writer, consummate arranger and a masterful composer, which can be heard on his latest release, One Day, Forever. As his triad of accomplishments in the world of jazz is unparalleled, Benny's latest is also a tale of three stories: not only does the CD cover a vast array of his best known songs (in a reunion with the late Art Farmer-these sessions would be the final time that Golson and Farmer would record together), it includes several exquisite new compositions that feature no less than some of today's royalty of jazz: Shirley Horn, Ron Carter, Mulgrew Miller, Carl Allen and a string section of twelve cellos. And not to be contained even by the boundaries of jazz, Benny's new classical composition for solo piano is included, the Chopinesque "On Gossamer Wings" which has its world premiere on this recording and is a further example that Golson is one of the most important artists of the last forty years. Benny and his music, including the new pieces, will be featured in March of 2001 in a series of special concerts at New York's Lincoln Center.

Benny's career is well documented: From his days as a R&B saxophonist with Bull Moose Jackson in the early 50's, his two year tenure with the Dizzie Gillespie Big Band from `56 to `58, his legendary musical directorship of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers in `58 and `59, the forming of the Jazztet with Art Farmer, his composing years in Hollywood for films and TV, his return to performance in the early 70's and the string of standards he has written in all those years amount to a massive, comprehensive body of music that is wide in scope and deep in value. But as stated before, Benny's music cannot be defined by a single genre, and since his association with Arkadia Records in 1996, Benny's has found a home for all of his projects that the world must hear. During that same time, Golson had reunited with former Jazztet members Art Farmer and Curtis Fuller for a tour of Europe, where they recorded the sextet portion of this CD. "But because of everyone's prior commitments, they could only record for one day," explains Arkadia CEO Bob Karcy, "which meant that we would not have enough material for a full album. I knew that we just had to use that material...and Benny had mentioned that he had written some songs that had never been recorded and some were the first for which he had ever written lyrics...he also told me that he had started working on a classical piano piece that was still unfinished." Beginning with those orphaned tracks, One Day, Forever is the result of the concept of a broad overview of Benny's career.

One Day, Forever is Golson's 4th CD for Arkadia and promises to be the most rewarding. The masterful Shirley Horn delivers the heartbreaking goods on two new compositions. The title track is described by Benny: "Whenever I write a ballad, which happens to be my favorite vehicle for music, I always think of Art Farmer instrumentally and Shirley Horn vocally...when I felt the urge to begin writing my own lyrics, I decided this piece would be the one..." Originally written as a tribute for Art Farmer's wife after her death, "the words seem to tell a story about love gone bad, it is, in fact, a very real account of Art and his wife..." Horn turns in an inspired performance that is destined to become the standard for this song.

Sad To Say is another impressionistic work that "grew out of the dark shadows of my imagination." Originally intended as an instrumental that portrayed an eccentric, haunted, tortured saxophonist crossed with the Phantom of the Opera and Quasimodo, "when I decided to write a lyric for it...it became a mournful, unhappy heavyhearted outpouring of unrequited love. You can hear the "tears" in Shirley's voice as she unfolds this sad scenario."

The romantic `fantasia' On Gossamer Wings was written over the course of several years, and was ultimately completed in the summer of 2000. Very few jazz musicians also compose or perform in the classical field, so the inclusion of this piece on a primarily jazz recording is somewhat of a first. "In On Gossamer Wings, I could hear the spirit of Rachmaninov, Chopin and other great composers of the Romantic piano literature," recalls Karcy. "With Arkadia's acquisition of the Postcards label, we expanded our musical horizons to include classical and world music. Our first release in the classical area was from the exceptionally gifted young pianist, Lara Downes, and Lara's idea for her next project was a musical journey through classical Americana entitled "American Ballads." I suggested that we record his composition with Lara to include it on her own new recording, and on Benny's CD as well. Who said that everything on an album has to be the same style?" Benny agrees. " I wondered how a classical artist would feel about recording something that was composed by a [jazz] musician...Bob and I wanted to include her recording of the piece on this CD. It's one of my compositions!" The CD culminates with the performance, whose motif is sculpted out of the classical language of Western Europe and explored through thematic development throughout the 10 minute work. It's only fitting that Lincoln Center will host the premiere of the opus in March of 2001, performed by Ms. Downes.

The six classics recorded in 1996 constitute a brief recap of Benny's output as writer of jazz hits. Blue Walk, Killer Joe, Are You Real, Out of the Past, Blues Alley and Along Came Betty all belong to the rare breed of song that refuse to be ignored over the course of time. Featuring Benny's core band of a younger generation that interpret standards in a way that belies their years, Dwayne Burno, Geoff Keezer and Joe Farnsworth meet the masters themselves: Benny, Art Farmer and Curtis Fuller. Together, they create-not recreate-new hard bop readings of the hits Benny penned over 40 years ago, to the more recent. The feeling of the group is that they are playing the music, not just the notes, as most groups are apt to do today. Such mastery can only be obtained through years of playing together-and it shows. It's no wonder that these musicians were of such importance and have contributed so much music to jazz, and their last session together is a testament of that. Even if the last 40 years may fall under the realm of "journalism and criticism" and not to the history books, as some factions may want you to believe, we all know the truth.

Three stories from one remarkable artist. Let the ears of your heart decide where to start first.

New Mercury Recording artists Fighting Gravity, a formerly mostly ska group, maintains a unique pop style that fans here in Blacksburg can't get enough of.

I own every Fighting Gravity album, and I love the way their musical style has evolved. "Forever=1 Day" represented perhaps their most dramatic change from previous albums, and it really reflects a universal appeal with songs like "One Day" and "Mission Bells."

"Forever=1 day" is just a taste of great things to come.
