Ben Miller Trio Feathers Of Ma’at On TAke Effect!
The pianist and composer Ben Miller brings along Taru Alexander and Joseph Lepore for these 9 originals that come from a lot of experience playing and writing jazz.
The adventurous and fluid keys of “Wise Path” starts the listen, where Alexander’s lively drums keep up with Miller’s finger acrobatics, and “Azoth” follows with the dynamic rhythm section matching the melodic sensibilities of the keys.
“Seahorse Valley” and “Zep Tepi” land in the middle, as the former benefits much from Lepore’s meticulous bass playing via the energetic climate, while the latter comes with no lack of rhythm and culture thanks to the trio’s strong chemistry.
