‘’Two stars and a newcomer. And all play piano solo. First, there’s Brad Mehldau. The most influential pianist of the 2000s continues to delve deeper into the music of classical predecessors. After his first interpretation of Bach, he now adds a second chapter and also presents an album of variations on Fauré. Fred Hersch, on the other hand, focuses on his inner voice without borrowing from the past, creating a program of personal miniatures. Finally, Henrique Gomide is a specialist in Brazilian style influences and open spaces for them over an album. Three pianos, three distinct worlds.’’
