"A formidable force, pianist Mulgrew Miller has a powerful touch and a muscular interpretive flair."

Product Description

In the fall of 2002, the prestigious John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts (Washington, D.C.) opened an intimate venue, The KC Jazz Club, on the roof level of its facility. The Club celebrated its opening with two weekends of selected MAXJAZZ artists. The highly acclaimed pianist, Mulgrew Miller, and his trio featuring Derrick Hodge (b) and Rodney Green (d) were the featured performers on the Club’s opening night, Thursday, September 5, 2002. MAXJAZZ is proud to present the first of two sets from that magical evening recorded by the late David Baker.

Live at The Kennedy Center (Volume One) features a sumptuous selection of songs from a trio that shifts seamlessly from hard-driving grooves to soft ballads, all with a distinct sound that has made Mulgrew Miller one of the most in-demand pianists in jazz. Similar to his critically acclaimed MAXJAZZ releases, Live at Yoshi’s (Volumes One & Two), Live at The Kennedy Center offers exciting jazz in a live setting.

This group and their leader is setting the standard for the current crop of piano trios. Simply recorded and mastered to the hignest standards. Don't miss this album!
I would strongly suggest that the music being recorded and issued by MaxJazz, this small St. Louis based label, be explored by the lovers of jazz. The piano series and singer series are the greatest!

Mulgrew Miller nos muestra una vez más su lado intimista en la ejecución en vivo. Un veterano joven que continúa abriendo espacios para la difusión del jazz. Sin duda alguna, Miller se muestra con gran pasión.
