Title: Unexpectedly Great
Review: I know Mr. Previn as a conductor, former spouse of Mia Farrow and film composer. I ordered this CD on a whim and was wowed. He is not exactly Art Tatum but, at times, as close as a European can get. He definitely knows how to swing and understands jazz piano very deeply. Especially for a classical musician (I am a jazz musician who frequently interfaces with classical players) he is at home in both worlds.I had a high regard for Mr. Previn to begin with especially because of his conducting of my favorite composer Ravel. But hearing this early work of his convinces me that he is a musical talent of the first water in both fields.reynold d. philipsek
