Product Notes

Recorded in 1962 and released the following year, Listen to Art Farmer and the Orchestra stands as one of his most ambitious statements as a leader. The album places Farmer at the forefront of a large ensemble arranged and conducted by Oliver Nelson. The personnel bridges New York's hard-bop scene with leading studio and jazz musicians, with Farmer featured as the principal solo voice against Nelson's full complement of brass, reeds, and rhythm. Guitarists Jim Hall & Barry Galbraith, bassist George Duvivier, drummer Charlie Persip, and pianist Tommy Flanagan support Farmer alongside an expanded orchestra. Nelson's orchestrations give him space to showcase his lyricism and poised tone, balancing tightly arranged ensemble passages with luminous solo statements. This program draws on beloved standards, including "Street of Dreams" and "Naima." The Verve Vault series is always mastered from analog tapes and pressed on 180g vinyl at Optimal.
