Jazz for Moderns is a wonderful experience. His use of polyphonic composition in the arrangement of the instruments creates a full and rounded sound between the various horns, the bass and drums. However, the pieces are not dry intellectual exercises, they are moving and filled with emotion.
I am so happy to see that this wonderful music has been reissued.I was in high school in the sixties when I first heard this album. It was in my father's collection. As I was beginning to really explore music I came to realize that my Dad had some pretty unusual stuff. He was a hard core jazzbo with early Duke and Count on 78. One day he and I sat in front of our black and white TV to watch a film that was produced to "illustrate" Don Ellis' new album,"Turkish Bath". I think Don had to be aware of Duane Tatro but took it further into an almost psychadelic realm. Well that got me hooked on the possibilities of big band jazz. As I dug into my father's collection I soon discovered "Music for Moderns".I nearly played that album out, blown away by the cool swing and harmonic textures that had more in common with Stravinsky than Basie.The album is a perfect suite; a mood piece that captures one man's vision of futuristic fusion. If anybody still believes that the fifties were a time of repression then consider Duane Tatro , Chico Hamilton, Stan Kenton, and all the inspiring "classical" music that was being written.
