Frank Kimbrough: Play

by Matthew Miller
More than the presence of Paul Motian on this, Frank Kimbrough's seventh album as a leader, harkens to the legacy of Bill Evans. The pianists share an unparalleled grace of touch and musicality that subtly penetrate the ear, dancing with the innate, ineffable rhythmic sense that makes repeated listening a pleasure. And like Evans, Kimbrough creates ...
Focus on Sanity

by AAJ Staff
By Frank Kimbrough There's been much discussion recently about musicians voicing their political views. I'm of the opinion that it's not only our right, but our responsibility to do so. Since 9/11, the Bush administration has characterized disagreement with decisions made by our government as unpatriotic or un-American, but I couldn't disagree more--not ...
Frank Kimbrough: Important Every Time

by Celeste Sunderland
Moonshine and church music flowed plentifully in backcountry North Carolina in the early '70s when a teenaged Frank Kimbrough saw the Bill Evans Trio on television.

Frank Kimbrough: Play

by Jim Santella
With this program of modern mainstream originals, pianist Frank Kimbrough embarks on a journey that emphasizes layers of lush harmony and ethereal impressions. While meter plays an important role on Play, Kimbrough's trio finds that it can express just as well with or without this tool; the pianist's swirling keyboard attacks ebb and flow dynamically.
Frank Kimbrough: Play

by Glenn Astarita
A founding member of the Jazz Composers Collective and a first-call session pianist, Frank Kimbrough's musical output as leader is widely recognized for its persuasiveness. These are powerful sentiments, especially in the digital age, where performers (in all genres) crop up faster than weeds in the garden. But Kimbrough's work as a jazz artist pays homage ...
Frank Kimbrough: Play

by Chris May
Recorded with no rehearsal and just five hours of studio time, Play is something of a departure for post bop-to-free pianist Frank Kimbrough. Unlike almost all of his previous albums, it's a fly by the seat of your pants affair with essentially a pickup group, albeit one of the highest calibre. The pastel, vivacious and lyrical ...
