A major and influential jazz pianist since the early 1990s, Brad Mehldau always performs stimulating and thought-provoking music.

While he has been heard in many different types of settings, his work as a piano soloist and as the head of his trio has been particularly significant.

On this intriguing solo piano performance, Brad Mehldau digs into the Beatles’ “And I Love Her” and turns it into a work of art; its evolution in his hands is both unpredictable and ultimately logical.
