Album Notes & Community Reviews

Showcasing a brilliantly inventive but tragically under-recorded pianist, 'Piano Moods' highlights Dodo Marmarosa's fluid, highly articulate approach to modern jazz. Supported by a light rhythm section, his complex bebop lines are executed with a delicate, almost classical touch that set him apart from his heavier-hitting contemporaries. The session is a prized, rare artifact of his immense talent before a prolonged disappearance from the scene.
