Title: New Groove Artist: Peter Beets Label: Criss Cross Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 8712474129621 Genre: Jazz Release Date: 2007-09-18 Number of Discs: 1
Peter Beets' fourth Criss Cross release features the pianist at the helm of a piano, guitar and bass trio. This novel configuration produces a rhythmically diverse take on American Popular Songbook favorites, jazz standards, and Beets' original compositions. The disc's nine tracks encompass relaxed pre-bop swing, modern up-tempo excursions and sensitive balladry. Bassists Reuben Rogers and Ruud Jacobs, and guitarists Joe Cohn and Martijn Van Iterson excel as accompanists and soloists. Beets consistently plays on a level that earns him a place in the upper echelon of young pianists.
