e., p lip;' by Norman Wisr I here's something about this time of year that is most conducive to music. With the excitement of Christmas still in the air and the New Year in its infancy, music can be the ideal way to relax. So turn on your new high-fidelity set or phonograph, and let's pre view some of the newer wax. TOPS ON THE RECORD SHELVES: The most exciting musical show of the season is "West Side Story," and while only a few of us will get to Broadway to see this modern version of "Romeo and Juliet," we can all enjoy the thrilling score via Columbia's original - cast recording of the show. Leonard Bernstein's music is outstanding. MUSIC FOR FAMILY LISTENING: "Fado and Flamenco Favorites" is Angel's contribution to the new sound parade. The LP stars Amalia Rodriguez. From Cadence comes another experience, this one spot lighting the music from a ballet known as "Rooms." And again, for a stunning combination of sound and music, spin "Cherry Blossom Time in Japan," a Decca effort with Werner Miiller. "Marlene Dietrich" is the latest in Decca's personality series. While the glamorous granny's voice leaves much to be desired, Mom and Pop should like the item. On the instrumental side, Coral has released three fine LPs which should have wide appeal. "This Time with Strings" stars Raymond x Scott and his orchestra; "Romantic Rendezvous" reveals Steve Allen's piano work backed by Neal Hefti and company; and for the older folks there's "The World's Finest Music" as played by Lawrence Welk. TEEN -TIME TUNES: Coral seems to have set its sights on the jive set this week. They'll want to audition "For Teen-Agers in Love" with Teresa Brewer, and then swing to "Teen-Age Party," hosted by the McGuire Sisters and a hep bunch of sidemen directed by Dick Jacobs. COVERING THE CLASSICS: Richard Strauss' "Der Rosenkavalier," featuring Elizabeth Schwarzkopf and an illustrious company, is Angel's opera offering this week, and it's well worth your listening. From Capitol comes Beethoven's "Symphony No. 7" as performed by the Pittsburgh Symphony, and for guitar lovers, a master presents his wares in "Laurindo Almeida the New World of the Guitar." JAZZOMANIA: The year 1957 experienced one of the largest-selling jazz albums of all time, Verve's two-disk package titled "Ella and Louis." Now these two greats, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, are back for an encore with "Ella and Louis Again." You won't want to miss it. And for 1958, keep your eye on Toshiko Akiyoshi, a fine young Japanese pianist. Listen to "Toshiko Her Trio, Her Quartet," via Storyville, and see what we mean. Take Barney Kessel on guitar, Shelly Manne on drums, add the -incomparable Ray Brown, and you have Contemporary's new "The Poll Winners." "The Swinging Guitar" is another bit of jazz guitar artistry, this time performed by Tal Farlow on Verve. SAMPLING THE SOUND TRACKS: Warner Brothers hired a sing ing actress, Ann Blyth, for "The Helen Morgan Story," then hired a singer, talented Gogi Grant, to handle the actual vocals. RCA has issued the original sound track, and youH love it. "Man of a Thousand Faces" will come up for Oscar consideration several months hence, and the movie's sound track on Decca also deserves an award.
