"This is Lisa LeMay's debut album as a leader. She serves up a delightful collection of ten standards and two of her originals in this solo piano effort. It is clear from her choice of standard compositions on this CD, and her sensitive renderings, that she has assimilated a thorough sophisticated harmonic understanding. LeMay demonstrates good solid time. Her interpretations sing with tasteful articulation.
Her sensitivity to dynamics is evidenced by the quick changes she makes within the melodic and improvised phrases of the standards that she is interpreting here.
This is an album full of enjoyable performances of standard tunes, by an accomplished pianist who explores the full-range of the piano." -- JazzTimes, January 2003.
LeMay, originally from Boston, and now living in New York City, has appeared with Dizzy Gillespie, Carla Bley, Holly Hofmann and others. She earned a Master of Music degree from the University of Arizona. In addition to her talents on piano, Ms. LeMay is a busy Music Director, Arranger and Conductor.
