One of the best Jazz-pianist in France, Manuel Rocheman, former student of the famous Martial Solal, presents here a new project, dedidated to Bill Evans. If some Evans compositions may be here on this albums, its main purpose is the very specific musical universe of Bill Evans, with some tracks & covered & even some new compositions by Rocheman.
"Bill Evans, the most European of jazz pianists, combines Skryabin, Chopin, Ravel, Satie and jazz in a wonderful way that brings European and Afro-American music together. His music always sings; he doesn't just play notes on the piano, he constructs beautiful melodies. He personifies a kind of jazzy romanticism mixed with the spiky power of bebop. His phrasing is always subtle, elegant and singing, and he plays with the utmost expression, without ever using mere effects. Bill Evans has always been an inspiration to me, and I wanted this album to be an homage to him."
