American jazz pianist Brad Mehldau releases a surprise album of new solo piano pieces, a snapshot in time written during the month of April at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and quarantine.
The pieces detail and reflect on feelings of loneliness in isolation contrasted with the closeness of family, the uncertainty of the future cast against the recent memory of a calm and joyful past. Mehldau also includes covers that capture the moment, including Neil Young's "Don't Let It Bring You Down" and Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind".
