About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Following a pair of hardcore jazz albums devoted to intricate ensemble scoring (Jazz on Film) and evocative original music (Wandering Moon), Terence Blanchard relaxes, exploring a variety of glass-half-full love songs by Jimmy McHugh with four of the hottest divas of the day. Blanchard's third songbook effort (following Billie Holiday and Ivan Lins) is a well-balanced affair, with updated arrangements that elicit fresh readings of the old warhorses by Diana Krall ("Let's Get Lost"); Dianne Reeves ("I Can't Believe That You're in Love With Me," "Can't Get Out of This Mood"); Cassandra Wilson ("Don't Blame Me," "Sunny Side of the Street"); and Jane Monheit ("Too Young to Go Steady," "I Can't Give You Anything but Love"). Blanchard won Downbeat's Best Artist, Best Trumpeter, and Best Album awards for 2000; he brings his instantly recognizable trumpet voice -- urbane, erotic, lyric -- to telling obbligatos and spot-on solos on an immensely enjoyable date. And don't neglect pianist Ed Simon's dark, Latinate arrangements of "I'm In the Mood for Love" and "Exactly Like You." Ted Panken, Barnes & Noble

May 17, 2001: Terence Blanchard is a genius! (Nuf said) To put Krall, Monheit, Reeves, and Wilson on one album is just ridiculous for true jazz listeners such as myself-- they are all absolutely wonderful. This album is a definite must have. As soon as I saw the promo, I ran to B & N and bought it. I LOVE tracks 1,2,......shucks .....I LOVE ALL OF THEM!
