FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10TH, 2012       7:00 PM-8:30 PM

When did you get the chance to hear piano and double bass played together in a duo setting, let alone two absolute masters, and right in front of you so close you can almost hear every breath? This is kind of music we hear at Northwest Pianos, in one of the most intimate and unique settings you will find anywhere in the Seattle area.

We heard masters such as Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw, John Coltrane, and originals from Randy as well, including Randy’s special take on a Chopin Nocturne. The communication between two musicians on this level, with the freedom that this kind of music provides, is spellbinding. The level of skill at both instruments from Randy and Jeff is simply top notch. Watching them play their music was like embarking on a journey, only to return once they released us from their magical spell.

Randy returned to our stage for the second time, but we welcomed Jeff for the first time. We will have them back again, soon!

This afternoon a crowd of about 40 people were greatly entertained with a rare performance of the entire Suite for Flute and Jazz Piano by Claude Bolling, written in 1975. This was accompanied by a description of each section by Roberta, which always adds such a satisfying spice to a listening experience. Where can you come to see music like this played live and literally only a few feet away. This is such a long and complex piece, which alone is a very satisfying journey to take. But also the listening communication between the two musicians permiates the entire experience as one watches and listens, which adds an entire extra level of complexity and wonderment. What a pleasure this was.
