Although I did not do the review, I listened to the CD and thought her work was precise and well performed. I would apply the same description to her new release, <i>I&#8217;ll Take Romance<\/i>. Backed by the <b>Jeff Steinberg Orchestra<\/b> Beegie and her traditional jazz trio cover well known love songs like <i>The Look Of Love<\/i>, <i>I Left My Heart In San Francisco<\/i> and <i>Smoke Gets In My Eyes<\/i>. The style of the arrangements is thick and lush with orchestration, emulating the musical style of love songs in the late-fifties to mid-sixties.<\/p>\n<p>  Definitely intended as mood music, the pace of the entire CD is measured and contemplative. Even the uptempo <i>Let&#8217;s Fall In Love<\/i> has been slowed and is doled out in a patient, carefully crafted manner. Other favorites covered include <i>I&#8217;ll Take Love<\/i>, <i>Some Enchanted Evening<\/i> and <i>The Way You Look Tonight<\/i>. Produced by <b>Jack Jezzro<\/b>, this CD definitely pute the &#8216;Music&#8217; in &#8216;Wine, Music and Romance&#8217; but it&#8217;s probably too mellow for your weekend BBQ.    <\/p>\n<p><?php require($DOCUMENT_ROOT . \"_footer.htm\");   ??><\/font><\/body><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beegie AdairI&#8217;ll Take Romance(Hillsboro &#8211; 2002) by Carmen Miller I<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4686","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4686\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jazzusa.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
