This
recording focuses on the original compositions
of the late pianist and composer Michel
Petrucciani. Christian Jacob's wonderful
arrangements and new take on these compositions
is a reminder of why there is always
a need to expand our musical boundaries
beyond the jazz standards we are already
familiar with.

“Styne
& Mine” pays tribute to the music
of Jule Styne with some of Christian
Jacob's originals mixed in. Hence the
title. For Christian, this CD was a
long time coming. For years he had been
recording and touring with Trey Henry
and Ray Brinker and he felt that this
was a great project for them to record.
Longtime friend and musical partner
Tierney Sutton, joins in for two of
the tracks.

"Adam
Nussbaum and virtuoso bassist Steve Swallow
are Jacob's co-equal partners throughout
Time Lines. They play with the intuition
that long-standing interaction imparts
to a unit, as though breathing synchronously,
capacious technique never impeding poetic,
improvised expression of a song's message.
They're a voice, an orchestra of three,
every bit up to Ellington's challenge--so
basic and so difficult--of imprinting
soul on every note."
