About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

CBS attempts to summarize Claude Bolling's voluminous output of classical/jazz suites with Bolling's Greatest Hits, a single disc of excerpts from eight of them. All of the CBS issues up to 1987 except Suite for Chamber Orchestra and Jazz Piano Trio are represented; the list of classical collaborators is impressive -- Jean-Pierre Rampal, Maurice Andre, Alexander Lagoya, Yo-Yo Ma, Pinchas Zukerman. Along with Bolling's changing French rhythm sections, American jazzmen like Hubert Laws, Bud Shank, Chuck Domanico, and Shelly Manne are here as well. While CBS' mad programmer manages to choose the best cut on the Suite for Cello and Jazz Piano Trio ("Baroque in Rhythm"), the most famous numbers on the First Suite ("Baroque and Blue," "Sentimentale"), and the most astonishing piece in the Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio, Vol. 2 ("Jazzy"), the Toot Suite is poorly represented by "Mystique" and "Rag-Polka." Yet this disc will give you the basic idea about Bolling's likable mergers of idioms, and casual browsers may not need anything else. Richard S. Ginell, All Music Guide

Bolling's Greatest Hitsby Stacey_Foreman

September 13, 2009: Upbeat and happy; has higher speeds as well as slow and mellow ones (please hear Sentimentale); Bolling puts together a CD with a song for many different moods; a CD that is relaxing, exciting and fun with a touch of Jean-Pierre Rampal as a compliment to this enjoyable collection of songs.

I Also Recommend: Suites for Flute and Jazz Piano Trio, Jazz In Paris: Claude Bolling Plays the Original Piano Greats, Bolling: Picnic Suite, Claude Bolling: Suite for Cello & Jazz Piano Trio, Claude Boling: Suite No. 2 for Flute & Jazz Piano Trio.
