Rich Pellegrin- Passage: Solo Improvisations Ii
Magical and elusive... Pellegrin's imagination never flags... This is music I'll be returning to both for deep listening and for inspiration. - Jazz'halo (Belgium). Recorded at Whidbey Island's charming Langley Methodist Church, near Seattle, pianist Rich Pellegrin captures the spirit of place in these times, exploring the wide-open spaces of the mind and reconnecting with water, mountains and forest. Selected from the same vault of recordings as 2021's "Solitude," "Passage" offers a moody, contemplative spirit as it follows an evocative narrative structure, taking the listener on a cinematic journey through their own imagination. The piano itself, a relic with it's own idiosyncrasies and character, is another personality in the performance as it's creaks and exhortations suggest paths for the performance to wander. Through these two volumes, an accomplished musical mind with far-reaching intentions offers the freedom to just "be."
