Alyson Cambridge: Until Now
BySkip right over to "The Man I Love" and see what I mean. This is so beautifully over-the-top that it can only be properly appreciate. She follows that old piece with an orchestral "Every Breath You Take" (The Police) propelled by Andy Einhorn's piano, though this arrangement veers perilously close to any dozen of such by Jim Steinman. Still, it is incredibly fun. Black Coffee," and "It's Too Darn Hot," the latter being appropriate as a second in A Westside Story. Stylistic eutectoids like this are a dicey gamble, but Cambridge and her fine band bring this recital off in grand style that is as informative as it is entertaining.
