Neues Album des gefeierten amerikanischen Pianisten. Brad Mehldau hat einen eigenen Ton, variiert diesen aber immer wieder auf seinen Platten. Das Doppelalbum 'Highway Rider' mutet wie eine geschliffene, aber keineswegs kantenlose Crossoverproduktion im Spannungsfeld Modern-Jazz, Klassik und Kontemplation an. Die hochkarätige Begleitband besteht aus Jeff Ballard (dr), Larry Grandier (b) und dem herausragende Saxofonisten Joshua Redman. "'Highway Rider's contrasts and dramatic entries spring constant surprises, and show how much progress the ... improviser has made as a big-ensemble composer. Saxophonist Joshua Redman is a key ingredient ... strings motifs are gradually displaced by drum grooves from which Redman's tenor suddenly erupts. This is the kind of genre dialogue that gets classical/jazz crossovers a good name" (www.guradian.co.uk). "In its almost perfect mix of form and freedom, 'Highway Rider' manages to be both Mehldau's most personal and most broad-scoped album to date, and surely one that will remain a classic amongst his discography, no matter what's to come" (www.allaboutjazz.com).
