Recorded in New York on December 28, 1959, Portrait in Jazz stands as one of the most celebrated albums in jazz history. Featuring the Bill Evans Trio, the album is widely regarded as establishing the blueprint for every subsequent working trio Evans would lead, showcasing his signature lyrical touch and understated elegance at the piano.
Biographer Peter Pettinger described the plateau reached on Portrait in Jazz as "high indeed, its fresh vistas possessed of a new subtlety in the execution," singling out the trio's performance of "Spring Is Here" as a magnificent example of Evans's lyrical artistry. Released on Blue with White Swirl vinyl, this pressing is a visually striking way to experience one of jazz's most quietly revolutionary recordings.
