Twelve solo cuts by one of the most distinctive stylists on today’s Improvising Music scene. Ernie alone with his thoughts. A bit more mellow than usual but full of the logic, development, and passion that has been his hallmark for over three decades.

Inspired by Miles’ and Gil Evans’ interpretations of Porgy & Bess, the genuflecting stops there. This is the first volume of a concert that will please listeners of post Bop piano trio music as well as fans of the Gershwin classic, but will not please the traditionalists and purists. An inspirational and accessible outing.
