notes
This is Monika Herzig's second CD where she gets to play her first love, the piano. Surrounded by great players, such as Steve Davis on drums, Jack Helsley and Frank Smith on bass, Tom Clark on saxes, and her husband Peter Kienle on guitar, Monika worked up a repertoire of straight ahead jazz. Some songs got a new harmonic and stylistic treatment, others are original compositions. The result is an energetic group with lots of chops and lots of fun just making music.
