Michael McNeill Trio: Flight
by Hrayr Attarian
On his second release as a leader Flight pianist Michael McNeill elegantly embellishes his own intricate compositions with bold spontaneity.

Michael McNeill Trio: Flight
by Budd Kopman
Michael McNeill and his trio (bassist Ken Filiano and drummer Phil Haynes) return after Passageways with the marvelous Flight.

Phil Haynes, Dave Liebman, and Drew Gress are seasoned players, all ...

Michael McNeill Trio: Passageways
