Milt Bernhart And His Orchestra - Scarf Dance

Review by Harry Bevan

Scarf Dance by Milt Bernhart and His Orchestra is an exquisite album that showcases the brilliance of the trombone virtuoso. The album comprises 12 tracks that are a mix of jazz standards and original compositions, all of which are executed with precision and passion.

The album opens with the title track, "Scarf Dance," a lively and upbeat number that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The brass section is tight and powerful, and the rhythm section keeps the groove going. Milt Bernhart's trombone playing is simply outstanding, and his solos are a joy to listen to.

The album continues with "Stompin' at the Savoy," a classic jazz standard that is given a fresh and exciting treatment by the orchestra. The arrangement is complex and dynamic, with each section of the orchestra taking turns to shine.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Blue Lou," "Moonlight Serenade," and "I'll Remember April." The album also features two original compositions by Milt Bernhart, "Milt's Mood" and "Bernhart Blows."
