Toots Thielemans' harmonica hymn of love
A gem of a jazz album with a love theme by the Belgian harmonica master.
His outstanding harmonica technique and rich musicality express the theme of love from multiple angles. His chromatic harmonica playing technique, in particular, is revolutionary and completely overturns conventional concepts of the harmonica. His exquisite ensemble with the backing musicians is also superb, and this piece is highly regarded as a masterpiece that maximizes the potential of the jazz harmonica.
