現在、70歳。40数年前、好きなアルバムでした。でも、この寂しさは。

10代の頃レコードを買いました。今６０代後半です。自分にとってはどんな曲よりも素晴らしい曲です。死んだ時はお経よりも流してもらいたい曲です。

クラシックの名曲を見事にアレンジ。このようなアレンジのセンスの良さは、悔しいけど日本人には真似できない。

４５年前ラジオからこの曲が流れていて大学を辞める気持ちに成りました。それもよかったのかな。今はコロナの時代、この曲を聴きながら、コロナの終息と、皆さんの健康を祈ります。

最高のメンバーによる最高の演奏。極上のテクニックと音楽性を持ったプレイヤーが静かに奏でる名曲、名演奏は時代に関係なく、又、聴く人の年齢、経験を全く無意味にしてしまう力を持っている。若い頃この曲だけが欲しくてLPを購入し、それこそ擦り切れるまで聞いた事を懐かしく思い出す。今改めて聞いてもなんと素晴らしい演奏であろうか。静かに耳を傾けていると自然と涙が溢れてくる。今は亡き作曲者の「ロドリーゴ」にこの演奏を聞かせてあげたい。

Ok I heard it for the first in 1981, I often say,if I had to pick one sound out of my entire jazz collection.......well there you are!, Simply beautiful on every level.

After listening to this more than a hundred times i must say this is the monalisa of music. the great art. the highest level. truly masterpiece. at first i just loved some part and don't really like the rest. but after listening to it many time it changed me. the least part became my most loved part. the more you listen the more you understand the whole story and it was perfect in every note and perfect from start to the end.

@@Suggsonbasshow should i explain i mean at the very basic this song combine classical and jazz, two most highest level music known to mankind. And yes you have to listen to the original song to understand it better before you switch to these one. But it is like you already know the story of concierto de aranjuez through joaquin rodriguez for a very longtime, suddenly there is someone else (jim halll and the band) come to you and tell you actually what you know about concierto de aranjuez all this year is just a surface of it. They know something that no one know about the real story of concierto de aranjuez. Even the founder of it joaquin didn’t know about the real story. So let me and my man tell you the real story. They left you in a kind of shock you know. Because all this year your heart is so confirm that what you recieve from joaquin is ‘the story’. But now you know that the real story is more sad, so emotional, so intense. That’s how i describe about this song. By the way sorry for my bad english😂

I’m 93…still loving

Being a classical music fan, I am very well acquainted with Rodrigo and Concierto de Aranjuez. It is a beautiful piece Rodrigo wrote and the second movement, according to his wife, was written with an undertone of his thoughts about their honeymoon and her miscarriage of their first child. That actually perfectly explains the beauty and the sadness of this piece. The first time I heard Jim Hall's version of this piece was when I was on my way home from work and it came on the radio (WDCB). A couple of minutes after the opening, I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the arrangement, despite having listened to the original numerous times. I pulled into a parking lot so that I could listen to the piece undisturbed and without any distractions. By the middle of this recording I was sobbing, not only because I was enjoying the beauty within, but also thinking about Rodrigo's state of mind. Jim hall did a magic arrangement of this piece and it'll live forever in my head until I die. Having said all this, my biggest beef with this recording is that I believe the bass is out of tune. I never noticed it until I listened to it loudly on proper speakers, but either the bass is out of tune (first noticeable at 3:39-3:54), or Carter is moving his finger up the string before the note's over. It's a bit annoying now that I have heard it and takes a little effort to look past it and not look for it through the rest of the piece, but nevertheless the piece remains amazing still.

Chet Baker, Roland Hanna, Paul Desmond, Steve Gadd, Ron Carter and Jim Hall! Celestial is not the word. An ALL-WORLD ensemble!

Идеальная аранжировка этого произведения! На века!

I first heard this wonderful piece of music on KKGO 105.1 in Los Angeles while I was on my way home from work. I turned my car around and drove to the now defunct Music City at Sunset and Vine. I purchased the vinyl album that I replaced over and over. I still have one album, cassette and CD. I listen to Concierto at least once a week and have for 39 years. Mr. Hall, where ever you are, thank you so much.

Just the most beautiful music of the humanity history

My Dad has been listening to this piece of "Art" since 1975, when he was 19.

Sono senza parole.. super

Also, Sir Roland Hannah on piano, brilliant as everyone else on this timeless classic, the best interpretation of "Concierto de Aranjuez." Steve Gadd shows why he never lacked for work, the cat just lays down a groove perfectly in sync with Ron Carter and Sir Roland Hannah. One of Desmond's best solos, ever, ethereal and moving.

The three most romantic lyricists of modern jazz backed by a trio of virtuose Players. Majestic Music. I can't stop playing it over again and again.

I'll never forget how absolutely smitten I was the first time I heard this, in a record store in Portland. I bought the record on the spot and still listen to it regularly 37 years later.

Oh, what beautiful stuff. To me the highlight is Roland Hanna's solo. Ron Carter's bass is so wonderfully responsive and supportive of the soloists, Steve Gadd's laid-back drumming is perfect, Paul Desmond is so plaintive, Chet Baker so dreamily beautiful. One of my ten favorite jazz recordings.

Bought this master piece in 1975 while living in San Francisco and spent many nights in the city inspired. Paul, Chet and Sir Roland take it to an unworldly musical level..... truly inspirational musicians.........RIP: Paul, Chet and Roland.

We all have our special memory to this, and in that- it will never be forsaken.

It is heartwarming to read these comments. Jim was unsure about recording this piece because he felt it was perfect as written - but I'm so glad he did. The guys were all sort of mesmerized while playing it. jane

Recorded and produced by the CTI jazz label. This is a 1975 Jim Hall recording by CTI records, created by the great record producer Creed Taylor, who prior to CTI created Impulse records, of the famed John Coltrane recordings. Hall's Concierto is now celebrating it's 40th anniversary of this recording. During the 60's and 70's some of the best jazz ever was recorded on the CTI jazz label. The songs on Hall's Concierto recording were arranged by the great CTI arranger Don Sebesky, and the recording engineer was the very well known Rudy Van Gelder.
