This rare solo piano set by
Clare Fischer has plenty of variety and some surprises along the way.
Fischer is best known for his work in Afro-Cuban and Brazilian jazz, and some of the music (including "a remake of his "Pensativa") falls into that genre. But there are bits of stride piano here and there, and also a variety of standards not associated with
Fischer, including "Autumn Leaves," "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You," "I'd Do Anything for You," and "After You've Gone." This CD shows listeners that
Fischer is even a more eclectic performer than expected. ~ Scott Yanow
