Ryo Fukui, from Biratori, Hokkaido, was a great jazz pianist who began teaching himself piano at 22 and was active for roughly 40 years.

His performances, marked by a powerful bebop style and delicate melodies, captivated many fans.

This piano trio work, which incorporates a range of jazz elements from bebop to modal, is a classic that fully showcases Fukui’s exceptional technique and expressive depth.

Since his passing in 2016, he has been rediscovered worldwide through platforms like YouTube, and the album’s brilliance continues to shine—evidenced by its reissue as a domestic LP in June 2024.

For anyone who wants to be moved by beautiful melodies and deeply stirring performances, this is an album you must hear.
