La canción Always in My Heart (Siempre en mi corazón) nos sirve para introducir al protagonista de la quincena, Ernesto Lecuona, compositor, pianista y director de orquesta cubano. En 2023 se cumplieron 60 años de su muerte en la isla de Tenerife. Pocos compositores han sabido moverse, como él, en el territorio fronterizo entre lo culto y lo popular. Como pianista era conocido internacionalmente. Como compositor, compuso géneros muy diferentes, zarzuelas, boleros, ballets y música de cine. Playlist: Always In My Heart - Glenn Miller feat.

Nowadays “The Nearness of You” often conjures a mental image of 21st century song stylist Norah Jones. And, indeed, Jones did release a gorgeous rendition of the song in 2001, leading some to think that she wrote it. Actually, though, the tune is twice Norah's age.Hoagy Carmichael wrote the song in 1938, originally intending it for an odd little movie project. In his Carmichael biography Stardust Melody, Richard H. Sudhalter reports that Hoagy dashed off the yet-unnamed melody for “a screen adaptation of Shakespeare's ‘A Midsummer Night's Dream,' featuring a 15-year-old Mickey Rooney as Puck,” but that production fell through.Then with lyrics from Ned Washington, the composition became “The Nearness of You” and was scheduled for inclusion in the feature film Romance in the Rough. However, that film, too, was never produced.Celluloid ConfusionThere is some celluloid confusion about the song's place in films. Sudhalter notes that despite accounts to the contrary, “The Nearness of You” was never scheduled to be included in the 1938 Paramount film, Romance in the Dark, starring John Boles, Gladys Swarthout and John Barrymore.Probably because of the similar titles — Romance in the Rough vs. Romance in the Dark — writers often have mistakenly credited the introduction of “The Nearness of You” to Swarthout in Romance in the Dark. That error is recorded in at least one reference book, numerous sheet music books and nowadays on hundreds of websites.ChartingIn reality, after the Hollywood false stops, the song had to wait for republication in 1940 to win its place as a beloved jazz standard. That was the year Glenn Miller and his Orchestra introduced a recording of “The Nearness of You” with vocals by Ray Eberle. The Bluebird label recording appeared on the pop charts at the end of June and remained there for 11 weeks, peaking at No. 5. In 1953 the song charted again, this time with Bob Manning singing with Monty Kelly and His Orchestra. His recording climb the charts to No. 16. Since then, the tune has been recorded dozens of times, by everyone from Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong to James Taylor, Barbra Streisand, Etta James and Seal.Dueling Pundits It's fun how the critics have differed wildly in their comments about this particular Carmichael creation. For instance, in his book American Popular Songs: The Great Innovators, 1900-1950, Alec Wilder called the song “simple and unclever,” adding that it is “the sort of song that an academic musical mind would sneer at.” As if to answer that challenge, Yale University music professor Allen Forte devoted no fewer than five pages to the song in his book Listening to Classic American Popular Songs. Forte called it “unusual,” “remarkable,” and “striking,” and even offering an effusive “Congratulations, Hoagy!” for Carmichael's slightly concealed replication of the refrain's opening phrase in the verse.Our Take on the TuneThis tune really hasn't made The Flood set list yet — we've only just started working with it — but it sure seems like it wants to settle down with us. Listen to everybody listening to everybody else. For instance, check out how midway through, Veezy's solo establishes a lovely mood that Danny beautifully echos when he takes his turn. Yeah, it's not a regular Floodified number yet, but stay tuned.More BalladsBy the way, if softer sounds are what your day is calling for, we've got the play list for you!

Como siempre que hay luna llena en fin de semana, dedicamos el programa a canciones sobre la luna. Empezamos con Eileen Farell y su extraordinaria versión de "Fly me to the moon", grabada hace justo medio siglo. Una de las más afectuosas canciones sobre la luna es "Moonlight cocktail" ("Cóctel a la luz de la luna"), que grabó en 1941 la orquesta de Glenn Miller con el cantante Ray Eberle y el grupo vocal The Modernaires. La cantante Lee Wiley grabó en 1945 su versión de "It's only a paper moon" ("Es sólo una luna de papel"), que había compuesto doce años antes Harold Arlen. En Voces con swing ya hemos puesto varias versiones de la canción italiana "Luna rossa". Esta vez la escuchamos cantada en inglés por Frank Sinatra, en un disco grabado en 1952 con el título de "Blushing moon" ("Luna ruborizada"). En 1945 Francisco Roviralta grabó un elegante fox titulado "Noche luminosa". Cuatro años más tarde, Antonio Machín grabó "Anoche hablé con la luna", del cubano Orlando de la Rosa. Al año siguiente Luis Mariano grabó otra canción cubana, pero cantada en francés, "Luna lunera". Y en 1955 Lolita Garrido grabó el fox de Agustín Lara "Luna, luna, luna". El director de cine Jesús Franco compuso en 1961 la canción que daba título a la película Luna de verano, que grabó en disco Juan Riquelme, acompañado al piano por el compositor. "Llanto de luna" es un gran bolero del cubano Julio Gutiérrez. Lo escuchamos en la poderosa voz de Elena Burke. Otro bolero, pero de estilo español, es "La luna enamorá", que escuchamos a ritmo de cha-cha-chá por el conjunto de Rudy Ventura. Terminamos con la irrespetuosa pero simpática versión de "Blue moon" que grabó el conjunto vocal The Marcels en el año 1960.Escuchar audio
