More Info:

Fresh rhythms. Gorgeous melodies. A powerful yet full touch that pleasantly stirs the emotions of the listener. The origins of the great pianist Masaru Imada are here. Masaru Imada has been active as a professional since the 1950s and now has a career spanning 70 years. He has been at the forefront of music from hard bop to fusion, and has released over 30 titles as a leader. He is one of Japan's leading pianists in both name and reality. His powerful yet full touch creates a sound that pleasantly stirs the emotions of the listener. His first album, 'Maki,' can be said to be the origin of this. The performances by the trio or one horn quartet are so fresh and beautiful. The carefully woven 'Autumn Leaves,' the dynamic 'On Green Dolphin Street,' the ambitious 'Gad,' the ballad 'Maki' dedicated to his beloved daughter, and the hot and cool 'Sea Horse. ' From standards to originals, his talent is fully displayed throughout the album. Released as part of the Victor 'Japanese Jazz' series, this is an undoubted masterpiece.
