Chet Baker - Trumpet
The NDR-Bigband and Rundfunk Orchester Hannover des NDR (Radio Orchestra Hannover) directed by Dieter Glawischnig
Despite a rough up-and-down life, Baker remained an excellent trumpeter to the end of his career. This concert, performed two weeks before his mysterious fall out of an Amsterdam hotel window (and his last known recording), is a near-perfect summation of his career. The emphasis is on his trumpet playing and Baker, whether backed by a symphony orchestra, a big band or playing in a small group with altoist Herb Geller, is in inspired form.~Scott Yanow
