"Out of all the so-called jazz standard repertoire, there are a number of compositions that really have a special place in my heart,” he says in a new video about the making of the album. "It was a true blessing to record this project with Matt Brewer with Justin Brown as the trio and have guest appearances of Ambrose Akinmusire, Mark Turner, and Joshua Redman."

“Out of all the so-called jazz standard repertoire, there are a number of compositions that really have a special place in my heart,” Hamasyan says in the video. “To me they are timeless, beautiful melodies that have been with me since I was a child. I wanted to take the melodies of these standards and apply ideas that I have been developing in my earlier recordings …”
