FIRST HEARING:
A CD that starts gently enough with the playing sounding thoughtful, almost restrained; but there is no doubting that the fingering is quite deliberate, ditto the tempo.
Feels like a man that thinks about his music.
There is a solid supporting group around Christy and we think that's always a good sign.
Have a listen.
