As he explains, the genesis of the recording came in November 2021: \"\u003cem\u003eRight after recording Spanish saxophonist Xose Miguelez's excellent album 'Contradictio,' and inspired by the perfect conditions at OJM Studios in Portugal - beautiful Steinway piano, perfect acoustics and technical conditions - I decided it was time for a \"special\" session as part of my solo project, so Xose and Jos? Trincado, our sound engineer, were kind enough to let me sit at the piano for as long as I wanted, improvise freely, and be recorded.\u003c\/em\u003e\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eWithout any intention other than making music, I started playing. When inspiration sets in, you leave the \"real world\" and music leads you through a new universe of its own. That's what happened, and when I stopped, everyone was so enthusiastic about the result that they generously offered to mix and master it carefully for a future release which they said was inevitable. After listening to it myself, I agreed with their assessment. So here it is, and I hope the listener will go on the same journey I did that day.\u003c\/em\u003e\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Justin Time","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50477624983883,"sku":"2016843","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_1a7d9483_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727475547"},{"product_id":"vancouver-1958-2","title":"Vancouver 1958","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eOscar Peterson\u003c\/strong\u003e's trio with \u003cstrong\u003eRay Brown\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eHerb Ellis\u003c\/strong\u003e lasted from 1953 to 1959 and is well documented on records.
