BEYOND WORDS
(JD130, SACD252) 2002 Recently, this has become my favorite recording for bass. Glen Moore, the bass player in Oregon, has a great old upright bass. Listen to the punch and clarity of this instrument. The bass should be deep and clean; it should image right in front of you with the reverb bouncing off the side walls. If you want to test your bass, use Track 8, “Leather Cats”: the bass should be deep and tight. Like most of our albums, this was recorded in St. Peter’s Church in New York City. My favorite tracks are 10 and 12, “Silver Suite I” and “III”. You will hear so much out of phase intonation hitting the side wall of the church that even in stereo it sounds like a surround recording. You will hear great depth and space as well. Listen to the timbre and dynamics of Paul McCandless’ bass clarinet and oboe. This recording is great to test bass (and I mean tight, fast bass). It also has a great feeling of space and some very interesting music as well.
