Reviewed: 2020—03-07 Genre: Jazz FCCs: none Review: This young Indonesian pianist has come a long way over his last five albums, gradually developing his own style, which he shows off in abundance here. At age 16, he is already charting his own course and becoming a fixture on the jazz scene. Hi band is tight and versatile. All the tunes were written and arranged by Alexander.
