Chano Dominguez Trio: Con Alma
by Dr. Judith Schlesinger
This is a rather different Chano from the one who first enthralled me with Hecho a Mano (Hand-made), his blazing flamenco/jazz mix recorded in Madrid in 1996 and released on Sunnyside a few years ago.

Bill Charlap, increasingly acknowledged as one of the best living pianists in jazz, has a unique touch; when he plays a ballad, as on “Sentimental Mood," he presses the keys so softly that the notes seem breathed, rather than ...
