Our Take

Erroll Garner's latest album, "Gershwin & Kern," is a delightful romp through the classic tunes of two iconic composers. Garner's signature exuberance and flair shine through on every track, as he effortlessly glides through intricate melodies and dazzling improvisations.

From the opening notes of "Summertime," Garner's virtuosity is on full display, as he navigates the tricky tempo changes with ease and grace. His playful interpretation of Kern's "A Fine Romance" is a highlight, with Garner's deft touch and impeccable timing bringing a fresh perspective to this well-loved standard.

Throughout the album, Garner's impeccable technique and boundless creativity are on full display, as he reimagines these timeless tunes in his own inimitable style. His infectious energy and joyous spirit are impossible to resist, making "Gershwin & Kern" a must-have for any jazz aficionado.

While some may argue that Garner's approach is too light-hearted and lacking in depth, it's precisely this sense of fun and spontaneity that sets him apart from his peers. In a genre often bogged down by pretentiousness and self-seriousness, Garner's music is a breath of fresh air, reminding us that jazz is as much about joy and exuberance as it is about technical proficiency.

In conclusion, "Gershwin & Kern" is a delightful showcase of Erroll Garner's prodigious talent and infectious charm. Whether you're a die-hard jazz fan or simply looking for some toe-tapping tunes to brighten your day, this album is sure to put a smile on your face. Highly recommended!
