As an improviser of unsurpassed lyricism and technique Fred Hersch is at his most intimate and revealing in a solo setting. With 'Solo', the pianist kicks off a creatively fecund yearlong celebration of his 60th birthday with a definitive statement of his solo artistry. In many ways, 'Solo' distills the essence of Hersch's pianistic expression. Recorded in a jewel-like Catskills church at the 2014 Windham Chamber Music Festival, the set evolves with a compelling internal emotional logic all its own, flowing through Hersch's familiar solo touchstones (Jobim, Ellingtonia, Monk, originals) that turn into vessels for his supremely graceful invention. His 10th solo recording, 'Solo' joins an illustrious collection of albums that started with his riveting 1994 addition to Concord Jazz's Live at Maybeck series.

This trio session is a bit unusual for Fred Hersch because it doesn't feature any of his own works, but his inspired choice of music and interesting arrangements make this trio session one worth acquiring. Joined by bassist Steve La Spina and drummer Jeff Hirschfield, he explores such classic jazz compositions as Wayne Shorter's "Black Nile," which is played with fire, the uptempo Sam Jones blues "Unit Seven," and Miles Davis' "All Blues," which is given a swirling piano introduction in a brisk arrangement. Hersch also caresses Cole Porter's masterful ballad "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye."

It's quite rare when a jazz duet album between two complementary instruments is so intuitive it often sounds like the work of one player with multiple voices. Such is the case on Free Flying, a live encounter between pianist Fred Hersch and 25-year-old guitarist Julian Lage. The latter is a prodigy who first appeared on a David Grisman album at age eight, played live with Carlos Santana at nine, and by 13 had worked with everyone from Herbie Hancock and Gary Burton (he is still a member of the vibraphonist's New Quartet), as well as issuing a pair of fine solo albums for Emarcy in 2009 and 2011, establishing himself as a mature jazzman.

Masterful trio interplay reliant on deeply honed three-way communication and a refined sense of understatement make Fred Herschis third recording for ECM an essential entry into the piano trio canon. Hersch tackles a handful of 20th century compositions n spanning from standards to less frequented jazz tunes n as well as three originals, with Drew Gress on bass and Joey Baron on drums n two longstanding companions of Fredis who have played with him on and off since the late 80s and early 90s respectively. iI feel that on this record you really hear the history," the pianist notes. iI hope that people can feel the maturity of the interaction, the sonic world and the sensitivity at play.
