The joy one feels when hearing the pealing of bells is something that Brad Mehldau brings to his interpretation of jazz standards on THE ART OF THE TRIO, VOL. 2. The forms of these tunes yield to the pianist's pan-diatonic intervallic ideas and bending of phrase lengths, springing back occasionally as the trio revisits the original melody, if only to gather energy for another leap away. Drummer Jorge Rossy adds an angular, Paul Motian-like rhythmic framework. On "The Way You Look Tonight," the trio constantly switches in and out of double time, sounding as if they are running in and out of a burning fire. The most direct interpretation is of Mercer/Mancini's "Moon River", in which Mehldau seems to hear the other melodic possibilities not chosen by the composer and states these simultaneously with the original melody.

When this young pianist burst onto the '90s jazz scene, he created quite a stir. Outside of free/avant-garde jazz, there hadn't been a piano player this strikingly distinctive for a long time. Mehldau's obvious forebears are people like Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett. Like ...

"Blame It On My Youth" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo.
Brad Mehldau's interaction with his trio was always as important an element of his '90s work as his own harmonic adventurousness. The first volume of ART OF THE TRIO puts the symbiotic relationship between Mehldau, drummer Jorge Rossy, and bassist Larry Grenadier under a microscope. The inner workings of this organism are as astonishing as they are inspirational. While Mehldau retains his delicate touch and Debussy-via-Bill Evans harmonic approach, his romanticism is less dewy-eyed ...

In his lengthy liner notes to the album, pianist Mehldau expresses his dismay at the constant comparisons between himself and Bill Evans.It may be assuming too much to assert that his work here actively attempts to discourage such comparisons by avoiding previous ostensible similarities to Evans, but the knotty, Monk-like intervals that open the album on Mehldau's exploration of "All the Things You Are" might at least lead one to speculate. ...
