Body and Soul / Cantabile – Michel Petrucciani
Body and Soul is an old favorite with a new twist. Michel’s arrangement is reverent but with serious chops. Petrucciani is joined by bassist Miroslav Viteous and drummer Steve Gadd, two of the best in jazz.
Cantabile is an Italian word that means “singable” or “songlike”. In instrumental music, it is a particular style of playing designed to imitate the human voice. The trio recorded both tunes in Munich during July of 1997.
