Post Subject: Koussevitzky RevisitedPosted by Paul S on: 2/14/2024
I
want to revisit a CD recital that Romy first shared at GSC, The Spirit of
Koussevitzky, Gary Karr, bass, with Harmon Lewis on the piano. Apparently,
there is no substitute for bass when listening to bass. Who knew? The
Loudspeakers have presented a much richer iteration of this very fine recital
and the remarkable instrument that Karr has graciously re-gifted for use by
other accomplished, serious bassists. Forget “fast bass”; this is Musical bass, including
the lowest to nearly the highest sounds, loaded with harmonics, texture and
dynamics, all driven by Karr’s skill, sensitivity, and special ability to
communicate the Music with this amazing instrument. Remarkable, now that it’s
laid out for me in such a pristine manner via The Loudspeakers. Nice ambiance,
too.
