Impulse!, 1963

“The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady” isn’t just Charles Mingus’s most ambitious and acclaimed masterpiece; it’s one of the undisputed greatest jazz records of all time. Originally written in part to accompany a ballet, it’s a single composition with six movements that surges through episodes of haunting blues, crazed big band crescendos, dreamlike themes and Spanish flavoured interludes. Performed by a supremely gifted 11-piece ensemble including key Mingus associates such as pianist Jaki Byard and drummer Dannie Richmond, it’s a breathtaking feat of orchestral arrangement that grips and beguiles from start to finish. Utterly essential.
