"We can see that he is crazy about his art, this man, that music is for him a vital function. How we'd love all musicians to be like him!" These words were spoken by Alfred Loewenguth, a violinist and prestigious interpreter of Ravel and Debussy about Sidney Bechet. Sidney Bechet was the undisputed the king of the soprano saxophone and also one of the most innovative and original clarinetists in jazz. He brought an unequaled energy, clarity and verve to his chosen instruments, and was best known for his heavy vibrato. Frémeaux & Associés' "Quintessence" products, recognized across the globe, are some of the best analog transfers from the source albums, and utilize digital restoration using the most sophisticated technologies without ever resorting to a modification of the original sound which would hinder the completeness of the sound, dynamics, and coherence of the acoustics.
