¡Sharps And Flats In Montreux 1982
¡Nobuo Hara & Sharps & Flats
Description
[Machine Translation] First CD release of a rare Montreux live recording! Nobuo Hara and Sharps & Flats, a long-time leader of the Japanese big band world, performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1982, one of the three major jazz festivals in the world. Although the live performance was a great success, the recording had been lost for about 40 years without being made available to the public. After Hara's death, the sound source was discovered by chance in 2022, and now it is being released for the long-awaited release! Columbia has many Sharp masterpieces including "Sharps and Flats in Newport" from 1967, and this time, too, the lineup is filled with Hara's wish of "Jazz born in Japan, not imitating or following the U.S. forever" and weaves together standards and Japanese melodies. We hope you will enjoy the refined sound of Sharp in the 1980s and the realism and exuberance of a live performance. Liner notes: Tatsuya Nagato ( Jazz writer ).
