¡Ballads
¡Don Menza & Frank Strazzeri
Description
[Machine Translation] A sturdy tenor saxophone and a fluid piano bring out the depth of the ballads in this duo. Don Menza is a saxophonist who has honed his skills with many orchestras, including Maynard Ferguson, Stan Kenton, and Buddy Rich. This album is a collection of duo ballads with his close friend, pianist Frank Strazelli. Both Menza and Strazelli are well known as balladeers, and the content is nothing short of superb. Perhaps it is the Italian blood that runs in both of them, but they showcase their full of singing spirit, starting with the very well-known songs (4) and (10). Enjoy this blissful collaboration, praised by critic and lyricist Jean Rhys as "warm and soft and gentle and moving.
