Coming to think of it, the omission in this series is Leo Parker. He was somewhat ignored in his day, but his recordings do put him among the best baritones over.

What was left out was Leo Parker and James Carter. They are bound to leave some out. I have a recording where Leo Parker plays a blues like BIRD, then after the piano solo Parker plays like a Lester Young solo, it's a classic solo. James Carter has some great Idea's and tone. As much as I like the hard tone, Mulligans playing shows off the different note tones better. too hard, the notes sound all alike. Pepper Adams my first love, then Nick Brignola has some of the best idea's on the Bari. Ronnie Cuber plays simpler, and is very pleasing to my ears. If one of those guys play a lot of notes, it better be good, our don't waste the listers time. Simple is good too, and may say more than a flurry of notes. Coltrane made a recording with Cecil Paine & Pepper Adams, check it out.

I feared for a while that Serge Chaloff had been overlooked, but he crowned this line of baritone masters -- rightly so, thank you Bernie, for in his hands the big horn sounded light as a feather (and Gerry Mulligan took his clue from him). On a sideline, Ronnie Cuber, now of blessed memory as well, was the only one featured in this master series to play a "low-A" baritone, and that for all of his career. That type, now the usual thing, was developed for big bands to create a firm low C in the sax section. Sadly, the definition of the entire horn became less articulate, especially in the low register and when played at full volume, as Ronnie used to. As a former addict of the baritone, I advise aspiring players to look for the old ones, Buescher and the like, then have their keys attuned (even Pepper Adams' left hand keys were open wide, to good effect though), because in general the old instruments are somewhat out of tune by the sheer size of their keys. Good luck!
@mambojazz1
Жыл бұрын
I disagree. The Mark VI Low A in particular is both more focused, as Low A baritones are, and clear in the lower register. Some modern horns like the Series II are clear, in tune, and balanced from top to bottom but lack the full sound most of us that play straight ahead want to hear.
