by Don Friedman Trio

Circle Waltz cover art

Pianist Don Friedman's second album as a leader, 'Circle Waltz' is a sublime trio recording that showcases his lyrical and harmonically sophisticated approach. Often compared to his contemporary Bill Evans, Friedman displays a uniquely angular and thoughtful improvisational style. The album is a masterful blend of introspective originals and beautifully reinterpreted standards, all performed with a delicate touch and a deep sense of interplay between the musicians. It's a session of quiet power and impeccable taste, solidifying Friedman's status as a distinctive and important voice in modern jazz piano.
