Passion World, the fifth Concord album (and eleventh overall) from vocalist Kurt Elling, lives up to its title on both counts. It is indeed his most “worldly” album to date, as Elling casts his net far and wide, from Brazil to Ireland, Germany to France, Scotland to Cuba to Iceland.
Vocal jazz of expansive nature delivered with warmth and generosity. A very fine album indeed. Here is a live version of Loch Tay Boat Song to give you a taste. Kurt's delicate phrasing, the understated – and all the more effective for it – arrangement, the Smith tenor solo – all combine to give it a special magic.
With his 11th studio album and fifth for Concord, 2015's Passion World, Elling maximizes this eclectic dynamism with a well-curated series of songs that find him exploring compositions and styles from around the globe.
