Classics - Scott Hamilton

Album Description

Scott Hamilton's 'Classics' is a masterful reimagining of well-known themes from the classical repertoire, repurposed for a jazz quartet. Released on 20 May 2022 via Stunt Records, this captivating album showcases Hamilton's timeless sound, impeccable taste, and flawless decision-making.

With a swinging rhythm section comprising Jan Lundgren on piano, Hans Backenroth on bass, and Kristian Leth, Hamilton's big tenor saxophone takes centre stage, delivering a delightful and creative programme of nine tracks. From the opening notes of 'I Think of You' to the closing 'Skymning', Hamilton's breathy, meaty tone harks back to another era while remaining refreshingly relevant.

The album's duration of one hour is filled with an exquisite blend of jazz and cool jazz, as Hamilton and his accompanists weave their magic on iconic pieces such as 'The Lamp is Low', 'Theme from Swan Lake', and 'Humoresque'. With 'Classics', Scott Hamilton cements his status as a celebrated American tenor icon, and this album is a must-listen for fans of jazz and classical music alike.
