A busy man! Husband to Singer/Songwriter Dory Previn and elfin Woody Allen ex Mia Farrow and now to concert violinist Anne Sophie Mutter as well as famed straight man to Morecombe and Wise!
Its a wonder Andre Previn found the time to become a renowned concert conductor and composer let alone develop into a stunning jazz pianist.
But as we shall discover through this addition to our Essential Collection series that is exactly what he has achieved!
Our collection joins Andre as a precocious seventeen year old in 1946 playing remarkable jazz runs and follows him through to the age of twenty six hard at work on a dozen tracks featured on CD2 covering such great composers as Harry Warren and George Gershwin.
