What do you get if you take a jazz musician and put him alone on a stage and tell him to improvise? You get some incredible performances. And that is the concept behind this DVD series. In this particular edition we get a pianist who incorporates both bop and Latin elements into his particular brand of jazz. This performance is sure to appeal to those who enjoy a lot of melody in their music. It’s certainly one of the more easily accessible discs in the set. It’s also very good.
