This LP contains sixBill Russoarrangements, five from Stan Kenton, and one byLennie Niehaus. The repertoire features many songs not associated with Kenton (such as "Sophisticated Lady," "Pennies from Heaven," and "Over the Rainbow"), but the inventive yet melodic treatments certainly sound like the Kenton band. The main soloists are altoistLee Konitz, guitaristSal Salvador, trumpeterConte Canoli, and trombonistFrank Rosolinoand, although these concise interpretations (none of the dozen performances is much over three minutes) are not essential, the music is quite pleasing. This collection is a change of pace forthe Stan Kenton Orchestra
