Product Details
Dee Dee Bridgewater has been one of jazz's most commanding voices for decades, a Tony Award winner whose work spans hard bop, blues, and the Great American Songbook with equal authority. Bill Charlap, meanwhile, has long been regarded as one of the most lyrical and harmonically nuanced pianists of his generation, known for his intuitive ear in duo settings. When two artists this deeply steeped in the tradition finally share a microphone and a piano, the conversation was always going to be worth preserving.

Created because of the relentless demands of their massive fan base, Bridgewater and Charlap curate a repertoire that only they can present: at once exploring the deep understanding of jazz tradition alongside impeccable phrasing and a once-in-a-generation dynamic range, bringing a level of sophistication that is sure to be documented in the books of history.
