The Modern Jazz Quartet 40 [DVD] [1990]

This 35th Anniversary Concert performance by bebop veterans The Modern Jazz Quartet was ... more

filmed at the International Music Festival in
Freiburg in 1987. Although they had formally
disbanded in 1974, they reformed when they
realised there was still a strong public appetite
for their music and continued to tour.A vehicle
for the formidable compositional and arranging
skills of pianist John Lewis, as well as the suave
and elaborate vibes playing of Milt "Bags"
Jackson, the MJQ came to epitomise in the 1950s
the "cool jazz" originally proposed by Miles
Davis. Academic, impeccably attired and with Lewis
in particular influenced by Classical and Baroque
music, they rejected the wilder, freewheeling
excesses of bebop in favour of a more sober,
though no less rewarding approach to jazz. The MJQ
sound, much imitated, became emblematic of the
1960s modernist chic.This 60-minute performance
indicates that even in later years the MJQ
remained pristine. Sporting matching white
tuxedoes, they recapture the cut-glass elegance of
their heyday with effortless grace. On Duke
Ellington's "Rockin' in Rhythm", Jackson works up
a quiet storm, while Lewis comes to the fore on
"Kansas City Breaks", his piano runs reminiscent
of Debussy, while the extended suite, "A Day in
Dubrovnik" is a vivid, idyllic tone-poem dedicated
to that ill-fated town.On the DVD:clocking in at
just 60 minutes this is a very short disc and
there are no extra features. But at least the
Dolby Digital 5.1 sound quality is uniformly
excellent, bringing crystal clarity to Jackson's
vibes playing in particular.--David Stubbs

Advantages: None that I can think of
