{"id":11349233871,"title":"Snowy Morning Blues","handle":"2239","description":"\u003cp\u003eWill Perkins is NOT “just another” stride piano player. He can play with plenty of two-fisted energy and dazzling technique – yes – but he is also a pianist with heart. Without ever sacrificing stride’s rhythmic drive, Perkins infuses his performances with melodic sweetness and musical sensitivity that bring out the true beauty of these works. From James P. Johnson’s ethereal “Snowy Morning Blues” to the hard-hitting “After You’ve Gone”; from the crisp ragtime rhythms of Joseph Lamb’s “Excelsior Rag” or Scott Joplin’s “The Easy Winners” to the haunting modern classics “Coriander Rag,” “Marty’s Blues,” and “Tiffany Lamp Rag,” this disc features more than an hour of exquisite piano playing, lovingly recorded in high-definition 24-bit sound on a Steinway concert grand. Includes a 16-page color booklet with notes by acclaimed composer Vincent M. Johnson. 66 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRivermont catalogue number: BSW-2239\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormats available:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAudio CD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApple Lossless\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003edigital download \/ no physical product\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMP3\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003edigital download \/ no physical product\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are purchasing a digital download and you do not know whether your playback device is compatible with Apple Lossless, we recommend the universally-compatible MP3 format.

Will Perkins

Snowy Morning Blues

$15.95
Maximum quantity available reached.

Will Perkins is NOT “just another” stride piano player. He can play with plenty of two-fisted energy and dazzling technique – yes – but he is also a pianist with heart. Without ever sacrificing stride’s rhythmic drive, Perkins infuses his performances with melodic sweetness and musical sensitivity that bring out the true beauty of these works. From James P. Johnson’s ethereal “Snowy Morning Blues” to the hard-hitting “After You’ve Gone”; from the crisp ragtime rhythms of Joseph Lamb’s “Excelsior Rag” or Scott Joplin’s “The Easy Winners” to the haunting modern classics “Coriander Rag,” “Marty’s Blues,” and “Tiffany Lamp Rag,” this disc features more than an hour of exquisite piano playing, lovingly recorded in high-definition 24-bit sound on a Steinway concert grand. Includes a 16-page color booklet with notes by acclaimed composer Vincent M. Johnson. 66 minutes.

Here is an album to contend with!

Will's playing has now tapped into that magical quality where a pianist isn't just playing the music, they're playing *with* it. In this disc you will find a fully personal approach; when Will i splaying "The Easy Winners", "Marty's Blues", or "Golden Wedding," it doesn't seem that he's trying to slavishly imitate another pianist. Quite the contrary--with each different piece, he is trying on a new musical hat, and not one of them comes off gauche.

This album features no shortage of the two-fisted white-knuckle stride piano solos that the younger generation of ragtime pianists have, for better or worse, gravitated toward. However, the bulk of this album settles into a refreshingly easy pace, allowing the strains of classic ragtime and other languid jazz pieces to shine out with a beautiful honesty.

To have such a set of performances coaxed out of a Steinway concert grand (did you know Scott Joplin owned one?) and recorded in exceptional sound quality is nothing short of a delight. Don't deny yourself the opportunity to hear a gem like this, and to support those who created it!
