专辑介绍
by Michael G. Nastos
Many of pianist Barron's recordings have been done with one set lineup. Though he has a core band of bassist Rufus Reid, drummer Billy Hart, tenor saxophonist David Sanchez, and trumpeter Eddie Henderson, the leader changes up the music quite a bit on this diversely adorned recording of two standards and eight originals. There are two duet tracks -- one with guitarist Russell Malone, the other with Sanchez. &And Then Again& is a 12-bar bopper on which Malone cops stairstep refrains from &Misterioso.& McCoy Tyner's kinetic &Passion Dance& features piano and tenor in a wonderful terpsichore. Barron's his own man as an improviser. Brazilian moments always crop up on his recordings; this album sports a long, languid, samba-tinged take on Billy Strayhorn's &Passion Flower,& as well as the breezy melody of &Cook's Bay,& which features a tick-tock samba similar to Jobim's &Waters of March.& These group efforts are joined by the Art Blakey-like &The Pelican,& one of Barron's best writing jobs. In stark contrast is the funky, dark modal juggernaut &The Wizard,& with banged-up, half-crazed chords from Malone, and the grooving Afro-Cuban minimalism of the title cut. The rhapsodic &Passion Flower& and &Um Beijo& both feature violinist Regina Carter. Barron's romantic notions are best displayed on the delicate, trumpet-fired bossa ballad &Sonja Braga& and serene waltz &The Question Is....& Barron has amassed a formidable number of high-quality recordings, but this ranks right up there near the top.
