Album Notes

The Tappan/Roberti/Williams Trio plays new versions of jazz standards. MJ Williams, the vocalist, also writes lyrics to songs that haven’t been sung before. The material from this CD was featured on the Montana PBS television show, “11th and Grant”, which described the group: “The \"Tappan/Roberti Trio\" consists of four of the finest jazz players anywhere with Ann Tappan (piano), Kelly Roberti (bass), MJ Williams (vocals), and Brad Edwards (drums). Their sound is the \'state of the art\' jazz that international audiences cherish and yearn for.” The Drumlummon Institute, Helena MT, wrote about the CD,
“Dancing to the Edge is a recording that seems to reveal layers, not only with each listening but also in the single span of its nine selections. One of the pleasures of the CD is that it is neither self-conscious nor self-referential.”
