Songs of the Wizz - Charlie Smalls/arr. Peter Kleine Schaars

The American trumpeter, jazzbandleader and composer Quincy Jones worked with Lionel Hampton and Dizzy Gillespie before he performed as accompanist of great stars such as Frank Sinatra and Sarah Vaughan. He also became famous as composer of film music. The best songs from Sidney Lumet's film The Wiz - an adaptation of the musical 'The Wizzard of Oz' - were written by Jones together with Charlie Smalls. With his usual skill Peter Kleine Schaars combined his fine arrangements of several of these songs into a thrilling medley. You can hear The Feeling that we have, He's the Wizzard, Soon as I get Home, Ease on down the Road, Slide some Oil to Me and A Brandnew Day.
