Coming back to A Train is noted jazz pianist (and psychiatrist) Denny Zeitlin whose recent recordings on Sunnyside evoke such stellar praise as: “There’s something magnificent about a top-level artist alone with a piano, immersed in a mood of quiet nights, under quiet stars… Wherever You Are-Midnight Moods for Solo Piano is Denny Zeitlin’s most intimate and contemplative sets of songs, and perhaps the loveliest work from a top jazz pianist at the height of his expressive powers.” Dan McClenaghan, allaboutjazz.com
