Product Notes

This album traces melodies that stretch freely and without boundary, capturing the expressive openness of a first trio recording made in New York under the production of Makoto Ozone. Led by pianist Kento Tsubosaka, the project reflects a journey shaped by deep study and international experience: after graduating from Keio University, Tsubosaka moved to the United States, was selected for the Berklee Global Jazz Institute under artistic director Danilo Pérez, and graduated as valedictorian from Berklee College of Music in 2019. Following his return to Japan, he has remained active as part of Makoto Ozone's young musician development project "From Ozone till Dawn, " while debuting in May 2024 with the all‑original solo piano album When I Sing, also produced by Ozone. This trio album, recorded in June 2025 in New York, reunites that creative partnership and brings together drummer Dave King-known for his work with The Bad Plus and the Julian Lage Trio-and bassist Charlie Lincoln, a longtime musical collaborator since Tsubosaka's Berklee years. Comprised entirely of original compositions, the album delivers fresh, vivid interplay that recalls the spirit of the Ornette Coleman Trio and the 1960s Keith Jarrett Trio, balancing freedom and structure with striking clarity. Recorded on June 17 and 18, 2025 at The Samurai Hotel in New York, and housed in artwork newly illustrated by Michiaki Mochizuki, the album stands as a confident statement of creative independence and modern jazz expression.
