Bill Charlap Trio
Bill Charlap - piano
Peter Washington - bass
Kenny Washington - drums
Pianist Bill Charlap is unique among contemporary jazzmen in that Richard Rodgers and Harold Arlen are equally significant to him as Charlie Parker and Thelonious Monk. Insisting that the melody and lyrics of a song are just as important as improvisation, Charlap's approach to melody makes the Great American Songbook sound fresh and new, and when he improvises, he's ceaselessly inventive in terms of coming up with original melodic lines.
For WRITTEN IN THE STARS, his first major-label recording, Charlap gives us a fresh perspective on well and lesser-known songs with great respect for the composer's original intent. Teaming up with the solid and first rate rhythm team of Peter and Kenny Washington (on bass and drums), he offers up pieces like "Where Have You Been?" - a rarely performed Porter piece and "Lorelei," included by Ella Fitzgerald on her definitive George Gershwin Songbook. Rarest of all is "I'll Never Go There Anymore," rendered by Charlap as an unaccompanied piano solo, written by Bill's father, the late Moose Charlap.
Bill Charlap and his release, Written In The Stars are featured on NPR.org. This feature is from December 2001 and includes audio clips and a 14+ minute Audio Interview.
Includes liner notes by Joel Moss. |
