Marc Copland - piano Drew Gress - bass Bill Stewart - drums
"Night Whispers", part three of the much-acclaimed New York Trio Recordings, is a highlight of the subtle art of the piano trio: three sophisticated virtuosos on an exquisite flight of sizzlingly joyful musical discourse. To follow this highly-refined three-way conversation is an experience that can take your breath away.

Marc Copland actually began his musical career as a saxophonist, playing alto with Chico Hamilton in the early '70s shortly after arriving in New York. However, he soon took time off, changed direction, and re-emerged as a pianist whose lyricism sometimes recalls Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett. Copland has recorded as a leader for Sunnyside, Savoy, and Jazzline and has also been a talented sidemen for a variety of modern mainstream all-stars. ---Scott Yanow, All Music Guide |
