【Jazz talk :103】On a Monday Evening




This trio with Gomez and Zigmund still stands as one of the pianist’s most distinctive and memorable groups. On A Monday Evening is a rare- high-fidelity snapshot of that association as there was nothing like a definitive live recording of that trio until now.

The album features eight songs captured by two college-age DJs, Larry Goldberg and James Farber, who had interviewed Bill Evans for their college radio station, and were able to use the station’s recording equipment to preserve the evening for posterity. The tracks have been remastered from the original analog tapes using the advanced technique of Plangent Processes for transfer and restoration and presenting a crystal clear and beautiful sound. 

 



William John Evans (August 16, 1929 – September 15, 1980) was an American jazz pianist and composer who worked primarily as the leader of his trio.[2] His use of impressionist harmony, interpretation of traditional jazz repertoire, block chords, and trademark rhythmically independent, "singing" melodic lines continues to influence jazz pianists today.
