I particularly liked the title song. Review: worth it just for nardis and autumn leaves - an interesting album with 2 outstanding cuts. one is nardis, a lovely, lyric piece with a very slight middle-eastern tone [almost reminiscent of some yusef lateef tunes]. the other is autumn leaves, which reverses the usual jazz structure in which the theme is stated and then gradually taken apart, deconstructed. instead autumn leaves here begins in fractured shards, barely recognizable and even then only at odd moments. the piece then gradually assembles itself into the familiar tune. throughout terrasson has some penetrating dissonances that have a flavor of thelonious monk.

IT WAS A DISAPPOINTMENT.

Heard Parisian Thoroughfare on radio this morning
And by this evening I was HOOKED! I had never heard of this guy this morning but thought his version of Parisian Thoroughfare was brilliant. Nothing like the original but which captured the essence of it exactly. It was brilliantly creative and clever. Then to find out that's not even the best one! Omg he definitely has one new fan! I'm excited to hear the rest of his stuff. Although it wouldn't shock me at all if this is his best. 5 stars!

The best of the younger generation of jazz pianists?
The contenders, in my estimation, are Craig Taborn, Matthew Shipp, Jean-Michel Pilc, Brad Melhdau, Jason Moran, and Marc Cary, with Jason Lindner, Ed Simon, Laurent de Wilde, Andrew Wonsey, Xavier Davis, David Berkman, and Aaron Goldberg not far behind. People like Marlyn Crispel, Myra Melford, Irene Schweizer, Geri Allen, Georg Graewe, Alex Maguire, John Wolf Brennan, Django Bates, and Misha Mengleberg, though brilliant, are not part of the younger generation, either by age or approach. Others, like Hector Martignon, Chris Parker, Alex Marcelo, and Huw Warren just haven't been heard enough to be able to make a judgment. Of the prime candidates, Jacky Terrason probably has the biggest discography as leader (although Matthew Shipp may be close; I haven't heard all his stuff), and has also has probably played in the greatest diversity of settings. Combining an uncanny rhythmic sense, a touch which can be either delicate or percussive, depending on what's called for, a brilliant modern harmonic understanding, deep swing, glorious melodicism, and prodigious technique, he brings more to the table than any of the other contenders. And Smile is his best recording to date. He seems to have found the perfect bandmates in Sean Smith on bass (himself a leader of note) and Eric Harland on drums. Perfectly attunded to their leader's ever-changing rhythmic and harmonic conception, they combine profound history of the music with catlike agility, always providing the near-perfect grounding for Terrason's exalted flights of fancy. Moreover, everything seems completely at ease--from the trickiest single note runs to the funkiest blooze statements. There's not a false note in the bunch. I raved about Jean-Michel Pilc's astounding album, Welcome Home, and I'm not backing off from that review. But something even more spectacular is going on here: Smile contains all the virtuosity of Welcome Home, but it's a lot friendlier, a lot more accessible, and a lot more fun. Somebody's going to have to record a monster of an album to top this one in 2003

原曲を超えるカバーソング
聞き覚えのある曲をカバーされてるのですが、どれも素晴らしいアレンジに仕上がってて、原曲よりもこちらの方が良いものがほとんど。おすすめです。

ビアノトリオ作品はBill Evansを始め沢山もっているが、Jacky Terrassonは初めて買った。その理由は11曲目に収められた「Jardin D'hiver」 １曲を聴きたいがためだ。フランスの歌曲でシンガーソングライターのKeren Annという女性が作った歌で、YOUTUBEで見るとStacey Kent始め仏語の女性Vocalものが圧倒的に多い。その中でJacky Terrassonを聴いて、その瞬間僕は一目、否一聴で久々恋に落ちた。かなりのスローテンポで弾き語るトリオ演奏は、元々の原曲の美しいメロディーをより一層輝かせて珠玉の一品に仕上げている。これ一曲で買いだ。他に「パリの空の下」、「枯葉」等々シャンソンの名曲が並ぶが、「Jardin D'hiver」には及ばない。

期待と少々ずれていました
＊＊１００でNardisともう一曲を聞いていいな！と感じて買ったのですが 他の曲は、軽い編曲といいますか・・・ 期待と少々ずれていました ピアニストの事よく知りませんので・・・・ 新品なのにケースに傷がありました このことで多少感情的になっているのでしょうか もう少し冷静になって聞いてみます。
