A poetic dialogue between piano and flute. A unique jazz session with tranquil innovation.
A unique collaboration between modern jazz master Bill Evans and flutist Jeremy Steig. The classical and free-spirited atmosphere will move your soul.
"What's New" is a 1969 collaboration album by piano poet Bill Evans and innovative flute player Jeremy Steig. The piano and flute duo arrangement, which is not usually seen in jazz combos, creates a unique sense of floating and transparency, and Evans' introspective sense of harmony and Steig's free-spirited improvisation are particularly well-integrated. In the tracks "Straight, No Chaser" and "Time Out for Chris," you can feel the elegance of classical music in addition to the improvisational quality of jazz, pursuing universal beauty that transcends genres. It is an intelligent and emotional album that gently embraces you.
