Theme and Variations

Theme and Variations (2006) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

One of the most challenging formats for a jazz pianist is crafting an entire CD consisting of piano solos. Pete Malinverni's first such outing stands out because of his immense creativity, which incorporates his classical background as much as his jazz technique. He begins with an initial theme, followed by 13 wide-ranging variations (interspersed ...

The Tempest

The Tempest (2004) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

The jazz world is full of pianists and composers with formidable chops, but it's rare to find musicians as accomplished as Pete Malinverni who write with his level of insightful straightforwardness or play with his kind of elegant approachability.

Of One Mind

Of One Mind (2000) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

Listening to the opening measures of "Everything I Love," adjectives like "relaxed," "uncomplicated," and "lyrical" easily float into one's mind, riding the notes coming from Pete Malinverni's piano. But there are also elements of surprise added to make sure that everyone's listening. As he moves along romantically on "Blame It on My Youth," all ...

Joyful!

Joyful! (2007) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

Pete Malinverni follows jazz greats like Duke Ellington and Dave Brubeck by devoting an entire release to original sacred music, though Malinverni's extensive background as both a jazz musician and a minister of music gives him a few additional advantages. First of all, the pianist is working with his own regular choir (plus a few guests), while ...

The Spirit

The Spirit (2000) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

Pianist Pete Malinverni is the leader of this quartet date and he wrote all but two of the numbers, yet he is overshadowed to an extent by a pair of his sidemen. Ralph Lalama's tenor solos, which recall both Sonny Rollins and Hank Mobley, generally take honors for their superior form, as the saxman comes up with consistently inventive ideas within ...

A Very Good Year

A Very Good Year (1999) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

Piano trios are not rare, and even exceptional pianists find great challenge in making them exciting. Malinverni, 41 years old at the time of this date, chooses to shade the mainstream jazz he plays in more subtle ways, punctuating the melodies with rich, lustrous elements of sound and swing. Bassist Dennis Irwin and drummer Leroy Williams are ...

Invisible Cities

Invisible Cities (2008) more music like this

by Pete Malinverni

Many of the pieces on pianist Pete Malinverni's Invisible Cities were inspired in part by the book of the same name by Italo Calvino, though in Malinverni's case, the cities he portrays in his composition are not figments of his imagination. Recruiting a top-flight band for the date, including tenor saxophonist Rich Perry, trumpeter/flügelhornist ...

by Pete Malinverni

Fortunately, there are smaller companies such as Reservoir who make it their mission to get greater exposure for deserving ...
