Review by Sheyas Parikh

Marian McPartland's album, Plays The Music Of Mary Lou Williams, is a captivating tribute to the legendary jazz pianist and composer. McPartland's masterful interpretation of Williams' compositions showcases her deep understanding and appreciation of the genre.

The album features a selection of Williams' most well-known works, including "In the Purple Grotto," "Cloudy," and "Scratchin' in the Gravel." McPartland's delicate touch and intricate phrasing bring these pieces to life, highlighting the complexity and richness of Williams' music.

Throughout the album, McPartland's virtuosic piano playing is complemented by the expert accompaniment of bassist Gary Mazzaroppi and drummer Glenn Davis. The trio's chemistry is palpable, creating a cohesive and dynamic sound that is both emotive and technically impressive.
