Synopsis

Album Description
Here is the first release of a three volume set of jazz standards, performed solo piano by Seattle pianist Walt Wagner. Here, the sound of his personal concert grand has been captured in gorgeous, fullbodied high resolution audio, where you'll hear the incredible clarity and delicacy in his playing. This is more than an hour of music where this fine musician takes the time to develop each of these great tunes. Melodic, subtle and exploratory.
 

CD Reviews

Absolutely captivating
William Owen | Surprise, AZ | 08/01/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you have missed out on Walt Wagner and his exceptional artistry, pay careful attention to this CD. There are many jazz classics and a few modern selections, but they all showcase his amazing talents. The sound is equally rewarding; there is a considerable amount of pleasing low frequency harmonics, too. The sound engineer obviously knew what he/she was doing. But simply relax and listen, even drink in this man's wizardry at the keyboard. I never get tired of listening to this collection. While I Normally identify a "weak" song in an album, there are no throwaways here. Buy it--you'll love it. A great way to remove the stress of a bad day."
