Contemporary jazz from a very talented pianist. The arrangements are
so lush and complex that it's hard to believe the only instrument on
the album is a piano. Jackson dedicates his pieces to a diverse group
of musicians; there are songs for Debussy, Ornette Coleman, and
Vladimir Horowitz. In addition to his original compositions he also
performs works by Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, and Charles Mingus.
