 George Orwell
George Orwell was born in Motihari, Bengal, India, as the second child of Richard Walmesley Blair and Ida Mabel Limonzin.
In 1933 he assumed the pseudonym by which he would sign all his publications - Orwell was the name of a small river in East Anglia, and George was definitely a British Christian name.
He was commissioned in 1936 by the publisher Victor Gollancz to produce a documentary account of unemployment in the North of England for the Left Book Club.

Brew and Gerry then split one, George shows an imaginative single-note style in his 24-bar solo on the fourth chorus, and the ensemble closes with a brief passage, ending on a flatted fifth.
Brew Moore is at his Lesterian best in the second chorus; Kai and George divide the third, and Mulligan has the fourth to himself, showing how he helped develop a new role for the baritone sax with his imaginative style.

Although all ten of the selections are Wallington originals, his boppish style was largely unchanged from the 1950s, and some of the tunes are based on the chord changes of more common standards.
However, the melodies are fresh, Wallington's improvisations are full of joyful swing, and the overall results (available as a Japanese import through Denon) are quite appealing.

Tenorist Frank Foster is at the core of both of these sessions -- as he leads the group on his own album, and he's the dominant reed soloist on the George Wallington session.
Although Foster's often lumped into the cliche camp for his long years with Basie, he shines like a rough diamond on sessions like these, proving that he's got a tone and a style that he keeps tightly reserved for small group sessions like these.
The second album of the CD is led by bop piano legend George Wallington, and has a slightly larger group that also includes Dave Burns on trumpet, Jimmy Cleveland on trombone, and Danny Bank on baritone.
