Recording and music
[edit | edit source]Material for this and seven other solo piano CDs was recorded over the period of three mornings and two afternoons in April 2001.[1] The album begins with a medley of a post-bop performance of "Gone with the Wind", together with "Basin Street Blues" and "Way Down Yonder in New Orleans".[2] The next medley, of "I Got Rhythm" and "I Loves You, Porgy", is played in an unusually angular manner.[2]
