Mark Limacher
Piano Solo on
April Fooled Me

About

Mark Limacher's piano solo is the sole improvisation on this arrangement of the lesser-known Jerome Kern composition. Taking a half chorus of the 34-bar AA' form in A-flat at a ballad tempo, Limacher's playing reveals a delicate touch and harmonic sensitivity ideally suited to the song's wistful character. The ballad tempo allows him to explore the full expressive range of his instrument within the intimate duo context.
