About this album

Alone (Again) is a quietly compelling late Bill Evans solo album, showing how fully he could turn standards into personal, harmonically daring statements. Recorded in 1976 and released in 1977, it finds Evans working completely alone, with the piano voice carrying melody, counterpoint and rhythm at once. The result is intimate without feeling small: his reading of pieces such as In Your Own Sweet Way and What Kind Of Fool Am I reveals the blend of lyricism, floating time and advanced harmony that made him one of jazz’s most influential pianists. For listeners, it is a near-ideal portrait of his late style.
