Pianist Lorraine Geller was a striking talent in the cool jazz era of the early 1950s, though illness ended her career in 1953. This 1992 memorial release celebrates her through performances of standards with collaborators including her husband, saxophonist Herb Geller, alongside Leroy Vinnegar on bass, James Clay on saxophone, and Red Mitchell on bass. Geller's approach was delicate and thoughtful, navigating standards with quiet sophistication. The ensemble plays with restrained elegance, emphasizing clarity and space. This is both a crucial document of a lost musician and a touching tribute from players who knew her gift firsthand.
