This new live album celebrates the inimitable sound of a little-celebrated compositional master playing at the peak of his powers, after a successful musical career spanning over sixty years. Pianist, composer and arranger Roger Kellaway conjures up breathtaking musical images in the legendary jazz club Mezzrow in New York City with excerpts from the songbooks of Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Billy Strayhorn and others. Live at Mezzrow features an extraordinary lineup, including Jay Leonhart on bass, Dennis Mackrel on drums and special guest Roni Ben-Hur on guitar.The greatest composers, arrangers and improvisers all have one important quality in common – they can tell a story. Either with a pen or an axe, the best from these three camps dig deep within to tell their personal truths in a way that the audience can relate to. Rarely do you come across an artist who is a true master of all three – but that is the case with Roger Kellaway.

Kellaway’s outstanding work began in 1963 with his debut album A Portrait of Roger Kellaway. It continued with his many years as an arranger for a diverse “who’s who” of musical luminaries such as Melanie, Liza Minnelli and Carmen McRae – his work as a sideman with such luminaries as George Harrison, Sonny Rollins, Stan Getz and Kenny Burrell. Kellaway has recorded over 250 albums and composed more than 20 film scores
