It woufc now seem to be a marriage of men that to tasted an awful long t, me and of music that has had many rebirths to have reached its euphorious realms. Molly Abraham describes Modern Jazz Quartet as, butterflies, but-terflies, raindrops, gauzy curtains blowing in the breeze, spider webs, Debussy, and every once in a while, a good kick in the stomach The members are John Lewis, the music director, Milt Jackson, who plays the vibraharp, Percy Heath the bassist, and Connie Kay, the only "new" member in the group that was founded in 1954 (he replaced Kenny Clarke in 1955). They play a mixture of jazz and classical music in, of course, the MJQ style. Regardless of tastes-MJQ tastes-MJQ has something to please. |
