Description
Phil Sunkel, cornet and trumpet player, was born in 1925 in Zanesville, Ohio. He played with the Claude Thornhill, Charlie Barnet, Stan Getz, Sauter-Finegan, Gerry Mulligan, Gil Evans and Tito Rodriguez bands. Leaving his role as a soloist aside, Phil mainly stood out as an arranger and composer of talent, being these recordings his most celebrated works and the only ones he did as a leader. MY idea of a jazzband, he said is something between a small combo and a big band incorporating the good features of both. Here we have the flexibility of a small group which allows the soloist a maximum of dom, plus the color and drama produced by the different ensemble sounds. The further possibilities of using a three voice group superimposed on a similarly conceived orchestral backdrop originated Sunkel s most ambitious and outstanding work: Jazz Concerto Grosso.
