A deep-reaching musical confession by the most honest pianistic expressivity Rozsnyoi has been searching for in his life

After two trio albums this is the very first solo piano recording that Rozsnyoi has released. It is a daringly honest confession of his life to date. The recording clearly consists of three layers, though all of it was recorded in one live session. With tapes rolling, Rozsnyi entered the podium of the Opus Jazz Club, sat down to the piano, and improvised to an especially attentive audience. The most important layer of the recording is provided by the poetic quality of these completely improvised pieces, which strive for transcendence. They are composed by Rozsnyoi, but not in the capacity of composer, rather in that of the improviser, nevertheless all these tracks can be perceived as if they were masterfully crafted compositions. Little Song, the only original composition by him on the record, to all those who have heard it in the trio version, reveals how Rozsnyoi is able to think in terms of forms and in concepts. It may well be that this tune demonstrates how Rozsnyi the poet works with his material. Standards by Porter, Gershwin and Van Heusen, forming the third layer, are able to evoke a light, smiling, unclouded atmosphere and therefore provide the welcome balance to all the sounds uttered with palms pressed together.
