About
Continuing John Laws Re-Creations series of albums, Vol. 2 features solo piano versions of jazz compositions ranging early swing and stride piano classics, to more contemporary tunes by Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, Kenny Wheeler and Pat Metheny, plus some classical too. <p>The CD starts with some dazzling pianism on Chopin's tune Opus 10 No. 4 and the album closes with Bach's chorale prelude Sleepers Wake. And everything recorded out in Italy by ECM engineer Stefano Amerio, on a beautiful Fazioli grand piano.

At first hearing, you may possibly be more confused than John Law, who grabs all this material and more, and adapts it to his own ends. The techniques employed vary from track to track, sometimes changing the time-signature or adding what seems an irregular ostinato, and only infrequently altering chord-sequences.
