Recorded: Power Station, New York
Solo performer: Michel Petrucciani - piano
In an interview, Michel Petrucciani said, "My biggest inspiration is Duke Ellington, because in my very early age he gave [me] the inspiration to play the piano." With Promenade with Duke Petrucciani not only honors music Ellington composed, but music with which he was associated. There are some Billy Strayhorn pieces and other songs where Ellington's compositional contributions are arguably marginal. This album offers an adventure in harmony as predicted by the first cut, "Caravan." Stretching over seven minutes in length, it explores, in-depth, virtually every nuance of this 1936 hit which Ellington wrote with trombonist Juan Tizol. Bold approaches to harmonies not withstanding, Petrucciani does not desert his basic let-it-all-hang-out romanticism in which he celebrates on "Lush Life." Petrucciani emphasizes feelings of sentimentality in his rendition of "In a Sentimental Mood." Petrucciani is a master at clarifying the mood he is trying to create with his piano. Promenade with Duke is one of the more innovative and stimulating sets of solo piano performances of Ellington's music on disc. |
