A very interesting combination, their collaborations mix very melodic and lyrical moments with more adventurous and advanced improvisations related to the various styles modern jazz was experiencing during those years.

• As a bonus, Evans and Scott’s only two clarinet-piano duets, as well as a Bill Evans trio selection that completes their August 1959 quartet session.
