Simply Magical,
By A Customer
This review is from: Schuman Nature (Audio CD)
There comes a time, perhaps after years of trying to fit into a particular groove or walk a particular walk, when something magical happens. The artist crosses over into a realm where beautiful music pours forth like it had been imprisoned somewhere in the dark recesses of his soul. Delivering yet another outstanding CD on his own label, JazzBridge Music LLC, Tom Schuman proves he's definitely come into his own. Schuman's latest collection of originals and standards, "Schuman NATURE," this time in a delightful trio setting that includes Schuman on piano, Ameen Saleem and Dwayne Dolphin on bass and Cora C. Coleman on drums, brings the listener back to jazz basics. It's all about the beauty of pieces like Tyner's Search for Peace and Monk's Ruby My Dear, laced with Schuman's stunning originals such as Thelma Faye and Marion. The nicest reward for the fortunate listener is hearing the exquisite purity and simplistic beauty a trio setting can offer. And Schuman absolutely shines! It's hard for many to disassociate the name of Tom Schuman from Spyro Gyra, but Schuman has come full circle into the light...a jazz pianist, creating beauty and preserving the past.

Interesting,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Schuman Nature (Audio CD)
After a stunning "Nefertiti," this album declines a bit in quality and becomes quite derivative. Yes, I've heard Bill Evans and McCoy Tyner too. Tom is very talented, but there is a depth missing. Perhaps it's from all those of years of playing fusion. You'll search in vain for his soul.Drummer Cora Coleman needs to find another line of work. Still, on the whole, interesting. And worth the price.
