Solo piano; soft traditional jazz. Heartwarming quiet-evening music. All tracks are originals, possibly improvised, but have the feeling of old standards. The pieces do feel like "ruminations" as the CD title suggests -- a well traveled old cat reflecting out loud on the piano. Most tracks have a relaxed, ambling, mid/slow feel. A few highlights: 1- Mid/slow. Floaty, cinematic intro 3- Upbeat 4- Slowish, with a nice bounce to it 6- Upbeat, nice bluesy feel 9- Bright and fluttery 12- Snappy blues romp | ||
