Bill Evans Trio - Portrait in Jazz

One of the most innovative and influential pianists in jazz music history, Bill Evans recorded a host of albums that could lay claim to being trail-blazing. Portrait In Jazz is one such album, the first of two studio albums he was to record with his trio (alongside Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian) and a delight from start to finish. Whilst much of the material is comprised of standards, the trios interpretations are neither routine nor predictable. Instead, there is constant interplay between the piano and bass, producing a unique outing that is both subtle and creative.
