O’s Notes: Pianist David Chesky assembles a trio with bassist Peter Washington and drummer Billy Drummond to transform The Great European Songbook into modern jazz. This is an exercise in rich keyboard exchanges with a classical foundation and a jazzy landscape. The results are an easy going, approachable session led by tunes like Bach’s “Prelude No. 6” and “Wachet Auf”.
