Pianists Kenny Werner & George Duke take on standards such as "Stella By Starlight" and "S'Wonderful," while Gil Goldstein adds accordion to the mix with a look at "Lover Man." with the performer's varied and singular styles there is great textural variety and the emphasis is always on musical conversation with a lot of deep interplay. "... a phenomenal player."
