News & Reviews

  • Financial Times: Brad Mehldau "Remains the Brand Leader" of His Form

    Brad Mehldau takes a night away from his Trio tour to play a special duo set with label mate Joshua Redman tomorrow night at the Christuskirche in Mannheim, Germany. The Financial Times, in its review of the Trio's recent show at London's Barbican, says of Brad: "Mehldau creates gently undulating soundscapes of gradually gathering intensity. Starting with the simplest of motifs, he develops an intricate tapestry of melodic details, chordal voicings and dense cross-rhythms." The Guardian calls the Trio's concert take on Sufjan Stevens' "Holland" "a lambent, implausibly lovely improvisation."

  • Times (UK): Brad Mehldau Trio "In Perfect Accord" at London's Barbican

    Brad Mehldau has kicked off the European leg of his fall tour with his Trio, whose performance earlier this week at London's Barbican earned four stars from both The Times (UK) and The Guardian. "From the opening left-hand phrases of Brad Mehldau's 'Dream Sketch,' there wasn't a finger out of place in two hours of music-making," reports The Times. "This was a trio whose members were in perfect accord with one another ... [and] demonstrated a level of telepathic co-operation rare not only in jazz, but music of any sort." Metro concurs, adding: "The Brad Mehldau Trio is the quintessential modern piano outfit."

About this Album

The Brad Mehldau Trio performs an all-covers set featuring American Songbook gems and a few inspired, left-field contemporary excursions. The Boston Herald calls it "a strong, seductively quiet take on jazz standards and pop classics, re-imagining everything from Cole Porter to Radiohead."
