On his new album Rebirth, Billy Childs reaches back to the start of his almost astoundingly varied musical experience-leading a small jazz band of state-of-the-art musicians with his piano playing. An accomplished symphonic writer, he has also amassed a career's worth of jazz originals that can swing hard, dazzle with intricacy, touch you with direct simplicity, or mesmerize with crystalline lyricism. He has the ability to equally distill the harmonic and rhythmic languages of classical music and jazz into his playing. "You're hearing something on this album that I love doing but that I haven't done a lot of lately: having musical conversations as a member of a group. That's what I love.", Runningtime: 00:00:00, A&R [EVP of A&R]: Al Pryor, Acoustic Bass: Hans Glawischnig, Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone: Steve Wilson (2), Cover, Painting, Photography By, Creative Director, Design: Raj Naik, Creative Director [Creative Services + Production]: Maria Ehrenreich, Drums: Eric Harland, Engineer [Assistant]: Nate Odden, Engineer, Recorded By, Mixed By, Mastered By: Rich Breen, Executive-Producer: Gretchen Valade, Executive-Producer [For Unlimited Myles]: Myles Weinstein, Liner Notes: Vijay Iyer, Musical Assistance [Music Preparation]: Migiwa Miyajima, Percussion: Rogerio Boccato, Piano: Billy Childs, Producer: Billy Childs, Production Manager: Will Wakefield, Technician [Piano Technician]: Noriyuki Soga, Trombone: Ido Meshulam, Vocals: Alicia Olatuja, Vocals: Claudia Acuña, Written-By: Billy Childs, Written-By: Billy Childs, Written-By: Claudia Acuña, Written-By: Billy Childs, Written-By: Billy Childs, Written-By: Billy Childs, Written-By: Billy Childs, Written-By: Alan & Marilyn Bergman, Written-By: Michel Legrand, Written-By: Horace Silver, Labelcode MACK1122.2 (MAC 1122), Copyright (c) Mack Avenue Records II, LLC, Phonographic Copyright (p) Mack Avenue Records II, LLC, Recorded At Avatar Studios, Mixed At Dogmatic Sound, Burbank, CA, Mastered At Dogmatic Sound, Burbank, CA
