Dialogues For Jazz Combo & Orchestra:Allegro-Andante Ballad-Adagio Ballad-Allegro Blues/Maria/I Feel Pretty/ Somewhere/A Quiet Girl/Tonight
Dialogues for Jazz Combo and Orchestra on side one was composed by Howard Brubeck and performed by the New York Philharmonic Orchestra with the Dave Brubeck Quartet and conducted by Leonard Bernstein. Side two of Bernstein Plays Brubeck Plays Bernstein contains five compositions by Leonard Bernstein played by the Dave Brubeck Quartet. (US:13)
“The music on the 'orchestral' side of the BpBpB record is neither Dave's nor Leonard's (but Howard's), nor is it jazz, and it is still awesomely beautiful, especially the third part. The 'Wonderful Town' side of the record still thrills me.”
“Bernstein Plays Brubeck Plays Bernstein is a classic. The West Side Story side is excellent, the orchestration on the reverse side is classic. I have the original record and rate it as a work of art by several musical geniuses.”
“In my love for all things Brubeck, I wore out side one which was the composition that Howard Brubeck (brother of Dave) wrote for his brother's quartet and the New York Philharmonic.”
“I had this album as a teenie-bopper back in the 1960s and believe me it was different but great. If you're into The Dave Brubeck Quartet this is a must have.”
“This is one of the best among many of Brubeck’s albums. Truly a work of art.”
