A fine collection of standards and originals presented by one of the top NYC musician"s of our time! Rick Germanson (winner of the Grand Prize in the 1996 American Pianists" Association Jazz Piano Competition) has performed with Pat Martino, the Cannonball Legacy Band, and Regina Carter while constantly performing with his own groups in NYC and abroad. "Pianist Rick Germanson performs with delicate grace ... using just the right touch to evoke a variety of textures." -- All About Jazz "There is an appealing heaviness and density to Rick Germanson"s playing that represents yet another distinctive, valid approach to the infinitely variable art form of the piano trio ... Serious chops humanized by the infectious pleasure he takes in the creative pianistic process." -- JazzTimes
