The saying "finding a diamond in the rough" appears to be the perfect reference to exactly how Resonance Records' President George Klabin discovered pianist Marian Petrescu. It seems that jazz enthusiasts never get enough of the best thing, and with the Internet as well as websites like YouTube there always appears to be someone adding a new video of the choice performance of some the actual legends of jazz. In this particular case, George Klabin was surfing the net for new postings of performances through the legend Oscar Peterson when he discovered a performance by Marian Petrescu actively playing the Oscar Peterson track Indy. George could not believe their ears as this unknown pianist was handling the Oscar way to perfection. So, from this simple electronic introduction the connection started to take shape. Following the death of George's close and very long time friend Oscar Peterson in 2007, the idea to do a tribute release appeared to be the perfect way to maintain his music alive, and George had his pianist in your mind, so he pursued and obtained Marian Petrescu.     Backed by a Big Band Sound of the Who's Who of musicians along with the contributions by three of the top jazz arrangers in the commercial Bill Cunliffe, Kuno Schmid, as well as Claus Ogerman, the release Resonance Big Music group Plays Tribute to Oscar Peterson became a real possibility.   With a vast array of songs to pick from the Oscar Peterson catalog, the ultimate selection for the release is really a compilation of some Oscar classics, some less popular Oscar songs, and few songs from additional artists that Oscar was recognized to play, with the result as being a captivating and compelling release. The opening track Waltzing is Hip leaves nothing towards the imagination as this rousing song introduces the listener towards the magic fingers of Marian Petrescu as the Big Band's brass and chain sections keep pace. The track L'Impossible brings about the insightful side of Marian because he renders each note for their fullest on this thoughtful, wealthy, and beautiful song. Little Girl Blue is definitely an intimate song that requires a unique feeling of the keys in order to capture the essence and body of work how the writers Rogers and Hart experienced intended, and in the hands of piano virtuosos for example Oscar, and in this situation Marian, it achieves the intended leads to perfection.   The tracks Down Here on the floor, and the Medley: Hymn to Freedom and John Brown's Body impart another phrasing and presentation from additional recordings, but always with a nod towards the genius of Oscar Peterson. Other monitors include Sally's Tomato, a superbly arranged touching song; Tricotism, featuring the Big Band to its fullest using the horn section blazing away as well as framing Marian's keyboard work whilst keeping his rich and rich textures intact; the track Greensleeves, that we am personally very fond of  because of its touching and moving sections goes down as one of my personal favorite arrangements on the release; the stimulating cover of Bossa Beguine may leave you gasping for air while you roll through this rollicking monitor; the West Side Story Medley may have you snapping your fingers and dancing within the aisles, parks, and streets; and also the release closes with the wily Oscar Peterson song Just a little Jazz Exercise, which is greater than a little exercise, it was a complete workout, but Marian was a lot more than up to the challenge. Websites where one can procure Resonance Big Band Performs Tribute to Oscar Peterson tend to be Amazon, Resonance Records, Jazz Shop, CD Universe, and Barnes as well as Noble.
