Company description::
“'A Little Night Waltz' is an important new recording ... [Mlely] has literally created his own harmonic language ... that looks at even the most common changes from a very different perspective, resulting in a more contemporary take. Mlely’s sound is uniquely his own,” writes John Kelman for AllAboutJazz.com of the G. F. Mlely Trio cd release.
Additional quotes from Kelman’s review:
“Pianist G.F. Mlely was starting to make quite a name for himself in the 1980s, with a successful touring career and a recording, Trio, that was among the top ten jazz albums being played on US radio, when a series of personal circumstances caused him to drop out for nearly two decades. Returning to the scene with two solo piano outings, 2000’s ‘Re-Entry’ and 2002’s ‘88 Keys and Counting,’ with the release of his first new trio recording in over twenty years, ‘A Little Night Waltz,’ Mlely is, quite simply, back, and with a vengeance.”
“Los Angeles-based bassist Bill Markus and percussionist Gene Stone know exactly what Mlely is talking about; they understand his style, navigating through some difficult waters and keeping up with a concept that, while tonal, never quite goes where one would expect.”
