Quincy Jones - Quintessence

Quintessence - Quincy Jones and his Orchestra
Paris, London, Budapest, Amsterdam, Sydney, New Orleans........it's only...music!!!!

[@gladstone6338]

Stunning piece from a stunning band. Phil Woods was just elegant in this time period and Quincy Jones wrote some beautiful ballads! You can certainly hear the french horn on top of the trombone section and I believe it was played by Julius Watkins?

[@gnembhard]

Some amazing musicians were featured in this orchestra. Most notably... Phil Woods Clark Terry Patti Brown Melba Liston Freddie Hubbard Oliver Nelson

[@richardmackota5267]

got that right. i actually pulled over in my car (here in San Francisco) just to listen to this piece. it was on our local jazz station..........lovely, oh so lovely................

[@ChronicalV]

Dios mío!! Jamás escuché nada como esto. La composición, el arreglo, la orquestación, y sobre todo el solo de sax alto de Phil Woods, todo, absolutamente todo, soberbios. Después de escuchar esto mil veces, me faltan mil mas. jeje. Quincy, GENIO !!

Beautiful! Reminds me of when my dad used to play Jazz in Vegas years ago.

[@josecoelho6722]

Esta é a verdadeia alma do músico... Esta melodia independe de letra, "ela é sua " você faz na hora e traz significado. Quando ouvi-la de novo a letra será outra e depois mais outra, mais outra e por aí vai. Gosto muito do " antiquado " Quincy "

[@lindaperkins4521]

perfect!
