Bill Evans Trio

This edition contains Bill Evans’ complete February 6, 1972 concert at Paris’ prestigious Maison de la Radio.

It is also intriguing to hear the pianist so involved in playing on the sound of the instrument.

In addition to the complete February 6, 1972 Maison de la Radio concert, this edition also contains a fifteen-minute version of Nardis from the June 1972 Ljubljana Festival in Yugoslavia recorded in trio format with Marty Morell and the exciting British drummer Tony Oxley.

“The piano was exceptional, excellent acoustics, all the conditions were combined to satisfy my ear; that’s how I let myself go and played on the sound more than I’m used to.”
