Canadian pianist Nancy Walker has been working with bassist Kieran Overs and drummer Barry Romberg since her '97 début, Invitation, and has continued to do so for her subsequent releases, '00's Luminosity and '02's Levitation.
Walker's music is easy on the ears, but don't mistake that for lacking in interest or challenge, because she masks an advanced harmonic concept within an accessible veneer.
For her latest release, When She Dreams, Walker also brings back saxophonist Kirk MacDonald, also featured on Levitation, and the result is an album of contemporary post bop with the kind of interplay that can only come from playing together regularly.
