Amazon.com A winner of the Thelonious Monk award for her piano playing, Lynn Arriale has been a star on the horizon for much of the 1990s. Alas, her star never rose stateside, though she's well respected in Europe. This set of eight generous tunes catches Arriale and her trio at the 1999 Montreux Jazz Festival, and the band and its leader are in top form. Arriale has the impressionistic sense of Bill Evans and the breakaway potential of Keith Jarrett, where melodies overcome her and she's off into their hinterlands, rhapsodizing or indulging some hard-hit keyboard commentary that's usually stunning. Her off-speed versions of Monk's quintessentially off-speed "Evidence" and "Think of One" are electrifying for their playfulness. So, too, is her ballad "With Words Unspoken," an elegant treasure of understatement--that is, until the tune sweeps her away. If it's piano you love, this will at least tip, if not gently bowl, you over. --Andrew Bartlett Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsDAYTON SAYS: BUY THIS CD Craig William Dayton | 01/05/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "The first time I heard the Lynne Arriale Trio was at a rustic jazz night spot (my favorite) called the Dearhead Inn, in Delaware Water Gap, PA. From that point forward, I have been a fan of this trio. Do you want to know why? Well, the trio has, as of this time, six CDs released, and if you want to know why I like them so very much, I would encourage you to buy ALL of the CDs. I have not seen the trio now for many years (they are WORLD performers and I am not, well, where the action is anymore), but when I notice a new CD released, I do not hesitate to buy one, as I know that the jazz will be fresh and inventive, and the overall performance will be a joy. Frankly, they're a class act! I'll let the jazz columnists fill you in on the specifics, but as for me, I am delighted to give my usual seal of approval here at AMAZON...DAYTON SAYS: BUY THIS CD....and ALL of their other CDs." Independent's Day Thomas Parkinson | Ireland | 11/03/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "The much discussed 'Art of the Trio' is very much in evidence in this superlative live recording, with the outstanding pianist Lynne Arriale demonstrating her considerable gifts in detaching and reassembling tunes in new, provocative and dynamic ways, ably assisted by longtime collaborator Steve Davis on drums (or 'sounds'), and Jay Anderson's looming and tuneful bass. The trio manage to outMonk even the great Monk on the sombre 'Evidence', and other standout tracks like 'Estate','An affair to Remember' and the clipping Arriale original 'Calypso' are perfectly full of wonder. This is a timely reminder of one of the best evolving jazz piano trios around. As the album opens, one is naturally reminded of another piano trio night at Montreux, in 1968, and the Arriale trio can justifiably live in that august company. Recorded on July 4th 1999, this was truly an Independent's Day." Jazz trio K. Seward | Metro DC area | 03/02/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is an excellent jazz group that has a full sound dispite being a trio. I recommend it for anyone who loves jazz."
