I Will Say Goodbye album for sale Product Description

I Will Say Goodbye album for sale by Bill Evans / Bill Evans Trio was released Dec 11, 2012 on the Universal Japan label.

Indeed, the beauty of Evans' conception lies in his (and his sidemen's) ability to imply the music's tempo and feel, rather than lay it out in even, metered beats. Evans begins each tune with a rubato piano introduction, employing a variety of musical shades, and tonal clusters.

This is most effective on Michel Legrand's composition, "Orson's Theme," and Herbie Hancock's, "Dolphin Dance." In addition, the ballads "I Will Say Goodbye" and "Seascape" bring out the pianist's penchant for dark, melancholic music. ...See Full Description
