Secrets Are The Best Stories is set to be a career-defining album for Kurt, confirming his trajectory on a new and evolving path of artistic excellence, and further exploring the passion and the messages, political, personal, that inspire him. Here, Elling adds evocative new lyrics to compositions by greats like Pérez’s iconic collaborator Wayne Shorter, late fusion bass genius Jaco Pastorius, and visionary composer/arranger Vince Mendoza, and to pieces from Pérez’s own catalogue. Along with his own compelling narratives, Elling adapts the works of contemporary poets Franz Wright and Robert Bly, the 19th century abolitionist poet Frances E.W. Harper and Nobel-winning author Toni Morrison. Ever since Kurt Elling burst on to the global scene 25 years ago, he has been developing the sound and command of his vocal instrument into one of the most recognisable in the music. A combination of – richness in intent, of soulfulness and of signature expression – define him as an artist. Secrets Are The Best Stories- the new recording from the world’s foremost jazz singer – translates an artistic vision of history, mystery, and storytelling into a musical message both singular and deep Artist Kurt Elling Genre Jazz Label Edition Records Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings The Fanfold Hawk (for Franz Wright) A Certain Continuum Stays Gratitude (for Robert Bly) Stage I Beloved (for Toni Morrison) Stages II,III Song Of The Rio Grande (for Oscar and Valeria Martinez-Ramirez) Rabo de Nube Esperanto Epîlogo Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Kurt Elling and more from Jazz View Product Quick View Kurt Elling SuperBlue: Guilty Pleasures (featuring Nate Smith) Soul / Funk | Edition Records | 1LP Released 6th October 2023 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kurt Elling SuperBlue: Guilty Pleasures (featuring Nate Smith) £18.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Edition Records SKU: EDNLP1223 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 6th October 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kurt Elling SuperBlue: The Iridescent Spree Soul / Funk | Edition Records | 1LP Released 15th September 2023 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kurt Elling SuperBlue: The Iridescent Spree £19.00 Genre: Soul / Funk Label: Edition Records SKU: EDNLP1218 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 15th September 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kurt Elling SuperBlue feat.
