Emmanuel Bex, Nico Morelli, Mike Ladd - B2Bill: A Modern Tribute to Bill Evans (2013)

It is difficult to describe this collection of musical moments dedicated to pianist Bill Evans. One can say, for example, that the interplay of Hammond organ and acoustic piano is not only brilliant but, in the way it is done here, totally original. Yet this, as you will hear, just barely begins to scratch the surface. This is the mystery of where the primitive meets the avant-garde, the street meets the steeple, the sky meets the ground. This is the space that is captured so beautifully on this recording. BEN SIDRAN December 2012
