Bill Evans pioneered improvisations with re-harmonized structures. Coltrane created solos with scales and elaborate harmonic devices. Miles gave us minimalism and modes. Today Bill Krause explores improvisations, where the composers vision was central to the improvisation. Where the exposition involves rich melodic statements, evocative of the original theme, and where fine nuances, beauty and control are the order of the day. Today, Approaching Standards presents the art of melodic improvisation.
