Lush, lyrical, and emotionally raw -a quiet triumph born from grief.
Recorded just months after the tragic death of bassist Scott LaFaro, Moonbeams (1962) finds pianist Bill Evans returning to the trio format with Chuck Israels on bass and Paul Motian on drums. It is one of his most introspective and tender albums – a ballad-heavy set that glows with quiet intensity and fragile beauty. Evans’s phrasing is subtle and deliberate, with standout renditions of “Polka Dots and Moonbeams” and “I Fall in Love Too Easily” revealing his deep emotional sensitivity. Moonbeams is not flashy, but it is unforgettable -a deeply personal record that distills the essence of Evans’s art.
