Over the last few years pianist Yonathan Avishai has played on the ECM records of trumpeter Avishai Cohen while developing his own project with the trio heard here. Opening with Duke Ellington, the album continues with a series of original pieces that reference a broad range of musics and experiences. Diverse influences are filtered through Yonathan's tradition-conscious piano playing, alert to old values of blues feeling and swing yet also strikingly original in its decisiveness and concision.
