Description
Morton Gould was a child prodigy, playing the piano at the age of 4 and went on to have a successful career as a multi-talented musician, conductor and composer.
Morton Gould was a child prodigy, playing the piano at the age of 4 and went on to have a successful career as a multi-talented musician, conductor and composer. Like many of the composers of Morton's time he was in command of a fantastic orchestra, but what set him apart was his ability to place modern standards into a symphonic context.
This collection of forty standards including "St Louis Blues", "That Old Black Magic" and "Over The Rainbow" are touched with a unique freshness from the Gould palette and beautifully illustrate the Goulden" magic. This has to be the ultimate collection and is a must for fans of Morton Gould and the big orchestra sound.
