Marc Copland: New York Trio Recordings Vol. 2: Voices

Read "New York Trio Recordings Vol. 2: Voices" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman
September 17, 2007

In a genre dependent on interaction, changing only one member of a group can yield significantly different results.

The result is an album that ...

The piano trio may be a longstanding jazz tradition, but that doesn't necessarily make it anachronistic.
