Romantic JAZZ INTERLUDE JIM HALL One of my favourite versions of the much recorded Concierto de Aranjuez https://youtube/watch?v=iD6k2E61ABY The Concierto de Aranjuez is a composition for classical guitar and orchestra by the Spanish composer Joaquín Rodrigo. Written in 1939, it is far and away Rodrigos best-known work, and its success established his reputation as one of the most significant Spanish composers of the twentieth century. James Stanley Hall (December 4, 1930 – December 10, 2013) was an American jazz guitarist, composer and arranger. Halls musical style develops with every new album and collaboration he engages in. His approach to music is unique - he views music as a way to break all barriers, not limited to music, as well as to share his discoveries with others. Music is a vehicle of peace for Hall and he therefore makes it a goal to reach out to others and communicate his music, teaching seminars all over the world. He is innovative and always interested in new modes of musical expression to further his ability. Halls tone has been described as mellow, warm, gentle, subtle, rich, and lightly amplified. Unlike other musicians, Halls work is not necessarily recognized by a signature riff but rather his expressive capabilities.[2] As an arranger, his solos are aptly constructed, taking into account harmonic, melodic and rhythmic elements. They are composed with both feeling and technique with clarity as the ultimate goal.
