About this album
Portrait In Jazz is a landmark Bill Evans Trio album that helped redefine modern jazz trio interplay. Released in 1960, it captures Evans with bassist Scott LaFaro and drummer Paul Motian in a highly conversational setting, where melody, harmony and rhythm feel constantly in motion. The album’s fresh approach to standards such as Autumn Leaves, What Is This Thing Called Love? and Someday My Prince Will Come made the trio model more interactive and harmonically adventurous without losing lyricism. Widely regarded as one of Evans’ essential records, it remains a touchstone for post-bop piano trio jazz and a key step in his artistic development.
