Pianist Frank Kimbrough’s untimely passing—on December 30, 2020—left a void in the world. Nothing can or ever will fill it, but his work and influence sound eternal, resonating and rippling across space and time. Kimbrough still has plenty to show us and teach us about the beauty inherent in the art of pianistic elocution, melodic variation, harmonic depth, human touch and reflective improvisation. And that’s made evident on this previously unreleased solo session.On July 19, 2010, Kimbrough made himself comfortable behind a Steinway B at his favorite recording studio—Maggie’s Farm, in Buck’s County, Pennsylvania—and engineer Matt Balitsaris rolled tape, capturing that afternoon’s music for posterity. Now, some 15 years later, these recordings see the light of day and serve as another means of appreciating a tremendous artist and dearly departed soul. Opening on Duke Ellington’s “Angelica” (a.k.a. “Purple Gazelle”), Kimbrough loosens the reins, allowing time to breathe and setting up a scenario that’s unhurried and ripe for rhythmic flexing and expert mining of melody. When artists talk about getting “inside” the music, this is a prime example of what that really means.
