Lynne Arriale Trio - Being Human

"In a sense the deeply meditative music with their one-word titles makes these glorious miniatures seem like vortices of emotion... For this is music that is born of body and soul. The compositions bear the hallmark of a composer who composes not so much with pencil on staved paper, but with the proverbial nerve-endings of the very flesh of her fingers that caress the keys as she plays the music. Her glorious melodic lines lift the black dots off the paper and exhort them to sing and dance and pirouette like Apollo's Angels in the air around you.  ...an album with so many heart-on-the sleeve moments that you will find yourself catching your breath in absolute awe of Arriale's introspective artistry...an artist of the first order... ...the album speaks to Arriale's humanity is the fact that it has been inspired by the epiphany that we all belong to the Human Race and if we are to survive we should allow "Love", in directing our humanity, to be the glue that binds us."
