Steve Kuhn Trio - Three Waves

Review by Inakat .

The Steve Kuhn Trio has released yet another masterpiece with their latest album, Three Waves. The trio, consisting of Steve Kuhn on piano, Steve Swallow on bass, and Joey Baron on drums, showcases their exceptional musicianship and chemistry in this collection of ten tracks.

The album opens with the title track, "Three Waves," a beautiful and serene piece that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Kuhn's delicate touch on the piano is complemented perfectly by Swallow's steady bass lines and Baron's subtle drumming. The trio displays their versatility on tracks like "Morning Dew" and "The Feeling Within," where they seamlessly switch between different tempos and moods.

One standout track is "Adagio," a hauntingly beautiful rendition of Samuel Barber's famous composition. Kuhn's interpretation on the piano is simply breathtaking, and the trio's restraint in their playing makes for a truly emotional listening experience.

Three Waves is a stunning display of the Steve Kuhn Trio's talent and creativity. Each track is a testament to their ability to create music that is both technically impressive and emotionally resonant. This album is a must-listen for jazz enthusiasts and casual listeners alike.
