Review
The dreamy, impressionistic side of Billy Strayhorn finds the perfect interpreter in Hersch, whose piano playing is as lyrical as ever. Andy Bey also turns in a great vocal performance on a rare album that paints a musical portrait of a lush life worthy of Strayhorn's star crossed lovers. Beautiful.
