Pianist Bruce Dudley’s 2012 release, The Solo Sessions, is a fresh addition to Dudley's discography, featuring brilliant solo performances of jazz standards including “Darn That Dream” and “You and the Night and The Music,” the pop hit “Julia” by John Lennon, and inventive original compositions penned by the pianist, all played with Dudley’s trademark lyricism, touch and wit. “The Solo Sessions” is a gorgeous example of Bruce Dudley’s mastery of both the piano and the American art-form known as jazz. Jazz Music City is very proud that we have added the name of such a well-respected and accomplished artist, composer, and educator to our roster. Bruce Dudley’s musicianship features all the beautiful contradictions great jazzartists offers any listener, all at once down-to-earth yet elegant, studious yet imaginative, rooted yet inventive, surprising yet comforting.
