It doesn't swing any better than this. Pianist Bill Charlap is a master of the piano trio. Whether performing an obscure bebop tune, or an American Songbook classic, Charlap's sense of phrasing and harmonic intuition keeps the music percolating. Although not related to one another, long-time cohorts Peter Washington on bass and Kenny Washington on drums, perform as if they were born to play together. After 13 years as a trio, the interplay between these three musicians verges on the telepathic. You will not hear a finer straight-ahead jazz piano trio than this one... ever. Live at the Village Vanguard is their most recent CD. |
