Debuutalbum uit 1997 van de Amerikaanse pianist/organist Roberta Piket. "In this auspicious debut, pianist Roberta Piket proves a startlingly fresh pianist. (...) Piket has evolved a personal style in which the harmonies of classical modernists like Debussy, Scriabin and Schoenberg ring out with the energizing brio of jazz masters ranging from Monk and Powell to Evans, Tyner, Hancock and Corea. Pikets unique approach is most evident in her bold reframings of standards such as Always. Here, and in the appealingly personal solo take Youll Never Walk Alone, Piket retains the essence of the melodys original shape while re-charging its emotive aura. Pikets supporting cast is superb. Bassist Mike Formanek and drummer Jeff Williams are Gibraltar-esque, pushing and probing with aplomb. On Brookland, a cleverly tabbed tribute to the 32-year-old pianists Big Apple home-borough, Donny McCaslins soprano sax and Scott Wendholts trumpet sizzle." (Jazztimes)
