BY ROLAND F. PALMER

have seen Michael Feinstein

perform live at the Flynn
Theatre in Burlington, Vermont
in September, 1998.

I was also lucky enough to
see Maynard Ferguson and his
Big Bop Nouveau Band per-
form at Champlain Valley

lconsider myself lucky to

Union High School in
Hinesburg, Vermont, on his
birthday this past May.

As a fan of both artists, I
was thrilled to discover that
these two musical talents have
recently collaborated and
released a new CD called Big

City Rhythms on the Concord
Records label.

This is Feinstein’s 18th
album, but it’s his first record-
ing in this context — as a croon-
er backed by a big band. Best

known for working as Ira-

Gershwin’s assistant and later
recording and performing
many of the Gershwin songs,
Feinstein has stepped into a
whole new dimension with this
recording. There’ve been a lot
of other firsts for him this past
year; in October, he opened a
nightclub called Feinstein’s at
The Regency in New York
City. He also wrote the musical
score and appeared ‘in the
recent Miramax film "Get

Darling, there's
T a coffeehouse

this month and
I don ’t have a
thing to wear!

Bruce."

Maynard Ferguson and his
Big Band have been touring
this year promoting their own
new recording Brass Attitude.
Maynard is known, of course,
for his robust and powerful
trumpet and flugelhorn play-
ing. At 71, he can still blow a
horn with fury, and it’s as
amazing to watch as it is to lis-
ten to.

With sixteen tracks and a
total playing time of just over
64 minutes, this new recording
is fantastic. Big City Rhythms
has a wonderful mix of upbeat
swing tunes, including "Swing
Is Back In Style" and "Close
Your Eyes"; romantic pieces
such as "The Very Thought Of
You" and “How Little We
Know"; and heartstring-tug-
ging ballads like "The One I
Love Belongs To Somebody
Else" and "When Your Lover
Has Gone/ The Gal That Got
Away." Feinstein and Ferguson
seem to have been meant to
play together, and it is definite-
ly a performance I would love
to see live.

Failing concert opportuni- '

ties, perhaps the second-best
way to enjoy these tunes is
with a quiet evening at home
with a special someone. Light
the candles and the fire, roll up
the rug, pull out the tuxes,
gowns, or whatever you con-
sider snappy attire, and let the
music make the evening. V
