| One person finds it’s stressful, another finds it comfortable and cozy; and then there are those who just don’t want to talk about it. Pianist Bill Carrothers makes music out of it – music that is especially introspective: “Family Life”, the new Pirouet Records CD by the 48 year old American pianist. It is a solo CD that expands the listener’s beautiful journey of imagination through the celebration of Bill Carrothers’ wife, children, dog, and the secluded life in a sparsely settled area of Michigan not far from two of the Great Lakes. The internationally celebrated pianist’s last album, the Pirouet double CD recorded live in the legendary New York jazz club the Village Vanguard, made people sit up and take notice. In his newest Pirouet CD, Carrothers captivates with 15 tracks of subtle beauty and unexpected moods. The old English folk song “Scarborough Fair” foreshadows the subtle symbolic-laden direction, and the schmaltzy sea-side romance of “Harbor Lights” – in this case referring to a lighthouse near the family home that Carrothers and his wife especially liked – has a very different sound than those versions by Bing Crosby and Elvis. The music of this introspective jazz virtuoso has many shades within the lights and shadows. As music, “Family Life” gently draws the listener out and into the middle of nature – and soon the listener wishes to be a part of the whole thing. Stress? You’ve got to be joking! This is magical music suffused with inner peace. |
