Pianist Ken Berman leads his own trio on Sound Poetry, featuring electric bassist Kai Eckhardt and drummer Akira Tana. The CD
is dedicated to his friend the late poet Eythan Klamka who said that any true musician is a sound poet.” On eight originals (including
tributes to Bob Dylan, Bill Frisell and indirectly to Bill Evans), and fresh versions of “Lush Life” and “Someone To Watch Over Me,”
(the latter modernized and taken as an unaccompanied piano solo), Berman and his group perform thoughtful, melodic and
impressionistic music. Grooving as much as swinging, the musicians develop and build up the music as it progresses. There is plenty
of close interplay by the musicians with Berman in the lead. While one might think of Bill Evans or Vince Guaraldi in spots, Ken
Berman has his own sound, with plenty of fire displayed on the medium-tempo jazz waltz “Spaghetti Eastern.” Sound Poetry lives up
to its title and will hold the interest of listeners throughout the well-balanced and easily enjoyable set. It is available from www.
