[CD] SACD The Oscar Peterson Trio - West Side Story

Analogue Productions (Verve) CVRJ 8454 SA, 0753088845468 - Jazz Hybrid Stereo SACD - Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound from the original master tapes to vinyl and PCM. The DSD was sourced from the PCM. George listened to all of the different A/D converters he had before he chose which to use, and he felt the George Massenburg GML 20 bit A/D produced the best and most synergistic sound for the project. One of the first Broadway musical scores to be overtly jazz-influenced was Leonard Bernstein's West Side Story , a tale of rival street gangs in the inner city. In 1962, pianist Oscar Peterson put his light-swing signature on the already popular score, making it, in the words of one critic, "a delight to hear again" and earning him a Grammy nomination. Originally released in 1962 Oscar Peterson, piano Ray Brown, bass Toots Thielemans, harmonica Ed Thigpen, piano, drums
