The Wrong Blues Alec Wilder (Prelude)

I love when I open the page Republic culture and I find something I like, tonight I'm off to see the Museo Pecci in Prato, the trio of Stephen Battle, which reinterprets the songs of a great American music of Alec Wilder The Wrong Blues.

Nice this project I read something now before fiondarmi hear the concert, the review of Wilder songs that have a difficult language, absurd intervals and that because of these difficulties' have slipped into oblivion this great composition of American 900. An eclectic character that parallel to the giants of the North American music (Porter, Gershwin, ..) work 'in the shadows with a fine attention to detail and testing ... has composed classical pieces, songs for musicals, written books, screenplays ... Well in short I'm running to see this concert (Hoping to find a place only 100 seats ...)

Ah, of course Jarrett had not forgotten affecting Moon and Sand (Standards Vol2) and While we are young (Box Blue Note) in his work rivistazione of standards ...

Prato, Pecci Museum Auditorium, at 21.30

Moon And Sand Alec Wilder

Deep is the midnight sea

Warm is the fragrant night

Sweet are your lips to me

Soft as the moon and sand

Oh, When Shall we meet again?

When the night has left us with a spell

We may

Though waves invade the shore

Though we may kiss no more

Night is at our command

Moon and Sand

Though waves invade the shore

Though we may kiss no more

Night is at our command

Moon and Sand
