Released in 2012 on his own Greenleaf Music label, Be Still finds prolific New York trumpeter and composer Dave Douglas taking a deeply personal turn with his quintet and special guest vocalist Aoife O'Donovan. Described by Douglas himself as "aspirational," the album draws from a rich collection of hymns and folk songs, rendered with warmth, intimacy, and the kind of quiet emotional depth that sets it apart in his extensive catalog.
Rather than showcasing flash or complexity, Be Still is a meditative, ballad-driven set that highlights Douglas's gift for reimagining traditional material through a contemporary jazz lens. O'Donovan's luminous voice weaves naturally through the quintet's playing, lending the album a timeless, contemplative quality that rewards repeated listening.
