Positive Comments: Beautiful moody song. It has many wonderful sounds and soft jazz is always needed.The sax part is strong and convincing.
Constructive Comments: One thing I don’t understand is why all instruments are not engaged in the whole piece . If it is supposed to be a surprise – then it is. This situation makes the sense of unstability, specially when the base comes so late in the piece.I didn’t like the first arpeggio on the piano and didn’t like so many arpeggios and scales played in fast tempo either.i think, that to show that a pianist is fast and practices scales is not that important. Thinking Jarret you will see that he shows his technic very rarely. The most of his right hand evolutions he can sing. But of course fast improvisation is fascinating, but should be more sophisticated and is hard.
