Jessica Williams newest album more than lives up to it's proud title with 8 originals by Jessica Williams and one seldom-heard chestnut by Sonny Rollins. The music is as new as the 21st Century and quite unlike anything Ms Williams has committed to CD before: In a program that spans all of the emotions, from longing, sadness, wonder and optimism, to melting love. Still firmly rooted in her nearly 50 year love-affair with jazz, she offers her deeply-felt tribute to the memory of the great pianist Oscar Peterson, and rounds out the mesmerizing program with her original compositions containing soaring lines and John Coltrane inspired rapid-fire sheets-of-sound.
