Bob Brookmeyer - Holiday: Bob Brookmeyer Plays Piano

A hallmark album, in which trombone master BOB BROOKMEYER switches to piano, with amazing effect.Together with two world-class Danish musicians, MADS VINDING on bass and ALEX RIEL on drums, Brookmeyer sets into motion a highly deliberate process, where an equal number of standard tunes and original compositions are given a new inner lifeby the use of simple means. Not by being turned upside-down and changed beyond recognition, but by being embraced by a person with a great musical heart. They are brilliant and heartfelt all at once.
