I have to agree with the last review. I love Bill Evans... but this album is 90% trash. The orchestration adds nothing to the music except echoing Evan's -mostly- substandard improvisation. It sounds like he's making music out of habit not desire. The only interesting thing is the sound of the keyboard. Try one of the four albums he made Scott LaFaro!!!!!!!!! All are clasics.

Sorry, guys, but this is not the music for which we like Bill Evans. I think this is not Bill Evans music at all. For all those who want to know who real Bill Evans is, I would recommend 'Moonbeams' and/or 'I will say goodbye'. These are very good albums to begin with. March 11, 2006

I just knew about this golden treasure album due a magnificent surprise gift of one beloved and estimated friend, last Saturday. In this work Evans once more exhibits with all his virtues some little and intimate musical gems. Michel Legrand' s What are you doing the rest of your life? is played with such introspective mood as I had never listened never before. Why did I choose you? expresses with meditative and serene calm, a decisive love's homage. Lullaby for Helene and Like someone on love make of this CD an appropriate pretext to listen over and over under the twilight, dawn, proving once more the artistic stature of this everlasting jazz legend.

This is an absolutely wonderful album of terriffic compositions, masterfully played by Evans. His Rhodes electric piano work is delicate yet full of emotion and technical mastery. His acoustic piano is heard with equal weight, also and is great as always. This is a fulfilling album all the way through. "Soiree" is my favorite of the set, easily one of the most beautiful recordings I have ever heard. One slight annoyance is a fairly high level of tape hiss, which must be inherent in the original master recording. Too bad this music was out of print for so many years. I cannot recommend this album highly enough. In a word: Buy it. November 30, 2001
