Inspired by his return to classical piano studies, Chicago pianist Steve Million was driven to explore and record a collection of his original compositions in a solo setting. With new technical and aural vistas discovered, Million collected old and new pieces and a Scriabin Prelude arranged for improvisation to present in this thoughtful and nuanced recital. One of the most active pianists in Chicago, Million is known to many through his recordings over the last 15 years with sidemen including Randy Brecker, Chris Potter, Dick Oatts and Michael Moore.
•"...a pianist of distinction...well known for his seemingly unlimited creative instincts and song writing to inspire a new generation." - All Music Guide.
