Description

[Machine Translation] This album is a duo with veteran bassist Osamu Kawakami, who used to play in Sadao Watanabe's combos, and the performance is flawless. Keiko Kurita's piano is a reliable and confident counterpart to Osamu Kawakami's powerful and forceful bass. Her original "K's Walk," the first track on the album, is sure to draw you into her playing. Her simple, yet groovy and bluesy playing has the power to overwhelm the listener. This drive is the charm of her piano playing. Another original, "Autumn Breeze," is a poetic song. Osamu Kawakami composed "Brightness of Peace Forever" with a fantastic bass solo. Keiko Kurita plays the pianica on "Alone Together" and sings on "Lullaby of the Leaves.

Description in Japanese

K'S WALK / Keiko Kurita Duo

本アルバムはかつて渡辺貞夫のコンボなどで活動してきた、ベテランベーシスト、河上修とのデュオなので、申し分のない演奏となっている。パワフルで強力なビートの河上修のベースを向こうに廻し、堂々と渡り合っている栗田敬子のピアノは頼もしい。一曲目に入っている彼女のオリジナル「K's Walk」を聴いただけで、彼女のプレイに一気に引き込まれるはずだ。シンプルだが、グルービーでブルージーなプレイは聴く者を圧倒する力を持っている。このドライブ感こそ彼女のピアノの魅力だ。もう一曲「オータム・ブリーズ」も彼女のオリジナルで、こちらは一転して詩的な佳曲だ。河上修は「ブライトネス・オブ・ピース・フォーエバー」を作曲し、幻想的なベース・ソロで酔わせてくれる。「アローン・トゥゲザー」では栗田敬子がピアニカを奏し、「ララバイ・オブ・ザ・リーブス」では歌う。
