Recensie
De viool had zijn prominente plaats in de jazz nog niet gevonden. Maar tal van klassieke componisten lieten zich aan het begin van de twintigste eeuw inspireren door de jazz. Na de eerste wereldoorlog werd de invloed van de jazzmuziek duidelijk merkbaar. Dankzij deze componisten uit de 'klassieke' hoek hebben wij het te danken dat voor de inspiratie voor hun composities nu wel werd gekozen voor de viool. Mooie voorbeelden hiervan op het album Jazzettes van Ursula Schoch (viool) en Marcel Worms (piano). Zoals de 'Scott Joplin'-achtige Sonatine transatlantique van Alexander Tansman. Maar ook Ravel, Schullhoff en Gruenberg doen een duit in het zakje. Van Jascha Heifetz zijn de transcripties van stukken van Gerschwin, Milhaud en Debussy. Schoch en Worms spelen deze stukken met aanstekelijke hartstocht en veel muzikaal inzicht. Van harte aanbevolen!

Ursula Schoch (violin) Marcel Worms (piano
Ursula Schoch (violin) and Marcel Worms (piano) play through jazz-inspired music from the interbellum. For many composers, the introduction of jazz at the beginning of the twentieth century in Europe did not go unnoticed. The spontaneity of the new music, the new sound possibilities, the vital rhythms, the refined, swinging rubato – and improvisation, inseparably integrated with jazz – they were all features which speak to the imagination. The influence of jazz became audible in symphonic repertoire as well as in chamber music. Although in jazz itself, the violin had never taken a prominent place, many composers chose the instrument for their jazz-inspired works. Even though an essential element of jazz – improvisation – is missing in their music, other elements justify the term “jazzy”: the lively rhythms, the free and whimsical melody lines and above all a light-hearted kind of energy, which mirrors the innovative and optimistic spirit of the Interbellum years.
