Charles Magnante Quartet DVD, Stockport - UKby Rob Howard
|
Charles Magnante (1905-86), born in New York, was for decades one of the world’s most admired accordionists, and his exceptional artistry did much to raise the image of the accordion in the USA and overseas. His recordings, compositions and arrangements are still held in high regard for their unrivalled quality. Magnante performed both as a soloist and as leader of his own quartet.
A unique DVD is now available, featuring 5 numbers played by the Charles Magnante Quartet. The pieces performed are ‘Waltz a la Accordion’ (a swing arrangement by Magnante of Chopin’s ‘Minute Waltz’), ‘Tantalizin’ (Magnante), ‘Andalucia’ (‘The Breeze & I’, by Ernesto Lecuona), ‘Sweet Sue’ (Harris/Young), and ‘Dance of the Spanish Onion’ (David Rose).
These films were made in 1946, and are known as ‘soundies’ (an early version of the music video). The line up is Charles Magnante – accordion, George Wright on electronic organ and piano, Jack Smith on electric guitar, and Eugene Ettore on string bass. George Wright went on to become one of America’s foremost theatre organists, Jack Smith was a leading jazz guitarist and vocalist, and Eugene Ettore found fame as an accordionist, composer and arranger.
