This is without a doubt one of the most beautiful jazz recordings I have ever heard. Although Aaron Diehl is a very young pianist, still in his twenties, this record has a classic feel harking back to the Modern Jazz Quartet. That is what sprang to my mind when I first listened, then I read that they were a particular inspiration to him. It is the clarity as well as the classical interface (he plays his version of Le Tombeau de Couperin, no less) that gives this impression. Otherwise the program is a mixture of classic jazz tunes (I particularly love any jazz recording that includes a piece from Porgy and Bess) and the pianist's own compositions which blend seamlessly to provide a sublime hour + of listening.

Columbus, Ohio's Aaron Diehl is a true rising star in Jazz. His keyboard playing is elegant and powerful, yet not overstated. I've been a fan of Aaron's work for a few years now, as I happen to stream an FM station from his home town that often plays cuts from this album, so I decided to jump in and purchase it. I'm glad I did. He's a solid Jazz artist, and this is a truly excellent Jazz album.
There are some truly elegant and surprising cuts, and some very standard Jazz offerings on this album. It's a superb first offering and I'm glad I finally acquired a copy.

I first became aware of this album on an NPR station here in the Seattle area, 88.5 KPLU. I was brought to a stunned standstill and ordered the CD at the first opportunity. This is some of the most smart, elegant, mesmerizing music I've heard in years. Mr. Diehl covers a multitude of moods and styles, all with equal deft aplomb. I appreciate discovering newer artists like Mr. Diehl, who already sound timeless and classic. He became an instant staple of my library. Do not miss this beautiful album!

Bespoke he is on that cover picture. Aaron Diehl is one of the best more or less recent arrivals on the piano scene with the capabilities to play just about anything. There seems to be somewhat of a mainstream revival going on and he fits right in. If you are unfamiliar with his work check some samples from YouTube where he has a channel. There is an elegance to his playing (especially with Warren Wolf) that very nicely echos the Modern Jazz Quartet.

I recently heard a cut from this CD on our local San Diego jazz station and I was immediately impressed. I bought the CD from Amazon and the whole CD was even better than the little bit I had heard on the radio. There is nothing better in jazz, in my mind, than the basic trio; however, when the vibraphone is added, it becomes even better. Think of the MJQ to confirm this. All players in this CD album are excellent musicians. Bassist David Wong has some fine solos; drummer Rodney Green tastefully drives the trio and quartet reminding me of Philly Joe Jones; and vibraphonist Warren Wolf's playing is reminiscent of the great Milt Jackson but he is not a copycat. And the leader, Aaron Diehl, really swings. The whole CD is straight ahead bebop. It is beautiful music and the quartet and the trio (The vibes are not present in every tune.) play as if they can read the minds of the others in the group.
When I consider buying a CD I usually look for at least a few of the great jazz standards and in this CD there are four wonderful old tunes. I am a UVM graduate and "Moonlight in Vermont" has special meaning for me. The version in this CD is beautiful and different from any take on this tune I have ever heard. "The Cylinder," a oft-recorded MJQ tune is also remarkable. The other two standards, "Single Petal of a Rose" and "Bess, You is My Woman Now" are truly outstanding.
In conclusion I would say that this CD is one of the very best CD's that I have run across in several years. I will have to put it up there with any of the great jazz CD's of the past. Buy this CD. I know you will enjoy it. Unfortunately, the only other music by Aaron Diehl I could find was a CD costing $99.00, and some other of his music that is only available in MP-3 format. That was not what I was hoping to find. But, I can look forward to another offering in CD format by this group which I hope will happen soon.

Nobody has interpreted "Moonlight in Vermont" like this. It works and works well, as do the rest of the song on the CD. Aaron Diehl is someone to pay attention to either by himself or with Cecile McLorin Salvant. He will grow into a force on the jazz scene, giving great joy to all who take the time to listen.

This disc is like a cool breeze on a warm sunny day. Awesome ! Every cut is terrific. Aaron's Fazioli piano rings like a bell, the sound quality is A+, and the quartet is tight. My only minor gripe is I wish the disc was longer. I'll be seeing these guys in March 2016 in NYC. Can't wait !

Nichts besonderes
Reviewed in Germany on January 30, 2014Verified Purchase
Diese CD hat mich und meine Frau leider nicht überzeugt. Die Musik die dieses Trio macht ist irgendwie austauschbar, nicht eingängig, weckt keine Emotionen, regt nicht zum Träumen an. Meine Frau meinte gar: Fahrstuhlmusik. Ganz soweit würde ich nun nicht gehen, jedoch hatte ich gehofft, hier außerhalb der skandinavischen Szene auf ein klassisches Trio zu stoßen, das sich zu hören lohnt. Leider war dies hier nicht der Fall.

つぶ揃いのカルテット
Reviewed in Japan on May 27, 2013Verified Purchase
きらきらした音の粒がはじけるような都会的センスにあふれた一枚。Mack Avenue Recordsからのファーストアルバムということだが、気負いやてらいがなく、聴き疲れのしない上質な仕上がりになっている。
アルバムの構成もいい。曲目リストは下記の通り。
01 Prologue
02 Generation Y
03 Blue Nude
04 Moonlight In Vermont
05 Single Petal Of A Rose
06 The Cylinder
07 Stop And Go
08 Le Tombeau De Couperin (III. Forlane)
09 Bess, You Is My Woman Now
10 Epilogue
自作の1,2,3,7,10に、デューク・エリントンやミルト・ジャクソンのスタンダードナンバー、さらにラベル、ガーシュインを組み入れている。若いのになんという気取り方だろう。
Aaron Diehlのピアノはもちろん、Warren Wolfのヴァイブラフォン、David Wongのベース、Rodney Greenのドラムと逸材が揃っている。カルテットは多分にMJQにインスパイアされているのだろうが、MJQのクールな持ち味に透明感をプラスしたような育ちの良さを感じさせるアルバムだ。
