Will Perkins is not "just another" stride piano player. He can play with plenty of two-fisted energy and dazzling technique - yes - but he is also a pianist with heart. Without ever sacrificing stride's rhythmic drive, Perkins infuses his performances with melodic sweetness and musical sensitivity that bring out the true beauty of these works. From James P. Johnson's ethereal "Snowy Morning Blues" to the hard-hitting "After You've Gone"; from the crisp ragtime rhythms of Joseph Lamb's "Excelsior Rag" or Scott Joplin's "The Easy Winners" to the haunting modern classics "Coriander Rag," "Marty's Blues," and "Tiffany Lamp Rag," this disc features more than an hour of exquisite piano playing, lovingly recorded in high-definition 24-bit sound on a Steinway concert grand. Includes a 16-page color booklet with notes by acclaimed composer Vincent M. Johnson.
