Our Take

BILL EVANS - How My Heart Sings

8.5/10

Ah, Bill Evans, the jazz maestro whose fingers dance across the keys like they're equipped with their own pair of tap shoes. How My Heart Sings is a delightful romp through Evans' trademark style, a cocktail of elegance and whimsy that is guaranteed to make your heart do a little jig.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, you're transported to a smoky jazz club in the heart of 1950s New York City. Evans' piano takes center stage, weaving intricate melodies that twist and turn like a winding river. The interplay between Evans and his bandmates is a joy to behold, each musician bouncing off the other with the precision of a well-oiled machine.

But it's not all smooth sailing on How My Heart Sings. Evans isn't afraid to throw a curveball or two, injecting unexpected twists and turns that keep you on your toes. Just when you think you've got the melody down, Evans switches gears and takes you in a completely different direction. It's like trying to catch a greased pig - exhilarating, frustrating, and ultimately rewarding.

So, dear reader, do yourself a favour and give How My Heart Sings a spin. You won't regret it. In fact, you'll probably find yourself hitting the replay button before the final notes have even faded away. Bill Evans may have left us too soon, but his music lives on, a testament to his incredible talent and endless creativity. How my heart sings, indeed.
