Pianist James Dower invites you to experience 'Reinvention': 10 original solo piano compositions that vary in mood and style, rich in emotional depth. 'Reinvention' is Dower's first solo release and his first since the debut of the James Dower Jazz Trio CD (recorded in 2000), with the title referring to Dower's newly established life as a New York City musician. An air of thoughtful introspection pervades 'Reinvention', along with a strong emotional undercurrent supplied by Dower's touch on the piano keys: often quiet and gentle, other times excited and eager. Always dynamic and focused on melody, 'Reinvention' travels through a series of inspired pieces, blending elements of jazz, pop and New Age to deliver a well-crafted set of piano music ideal for setting background mood as well as for careful listening.
