Product details
Mike Nock is an icon of the Australian and international jazz scenes. In a career spanning more than 65 years, including 25 years in the US, he has worked with the world's top jazz artists and garnered a swag of awards, including being inducted into the Australian Jazz Hall of Fame. His music spans a broad range of contemporary styles yet is always at the vanguard of jazz's evolution.
His discography of more than 35 albums, recorded
with his Trio, Quartet, Big Small Band and many other
collaborators, includes ARIA, AIR and Jazz Bell award winners,
but this is his first solo album since the chart-topping
Touch, released 30 years ago almost to the day, in 1993,
and recorded in the very same space, the ABC's Eugene Goossens
Hall.
The 13 tracks on Hearing
explore the vast range of colours and moods that
can be conjured from keys of a piano, and prove again Mike Nock's
incomparable genius as both composer and performer.
