A valuable record that connects the tradition of hard bop piano to the present day
Barry Harris shows us the royal road to jazz piano.
"Breakin' It Up" fully demonstrates his exceptional technique and musical education, faithfully carrying on the bebop tradition while adding a fresh personal interpretation. The recording is also excellent, beautifully capturing the texture of the acoustic piano and the atmosphere of the venue. This valuable recording is highly regarded as a culmination of his talent as a pianist who holds an important place in jazz history, and his commitment as an educator.
