about

"Two As One, this standards’ collection made by Barron and Williams with Olympian freshness, has become famous all over the world and is recommended by many teachers to their students as a landmark example to improvise on very famous tracks. Two As One is also the proof of how not one becomes two, but ‘two as one’, because of the integration and the harmony of each other talents and musical abilities, able to give life to a unique language of extraordinary knowledge and musicality. Here a very intimate and chamber idea develops, which anyway is able to keep itself within a completely ‘black’ concept of jazz piano, without claiming to become something else." (Sergio Veschi)

Kenny Barron and Buster Williams' remastered record, adds a second LP of previously unreleased music by the magnificent duo since its first release in 1986. Four more tracks, for more than 40 minutes of never-before-released music from the same Umbria Jazz live session.
