Northwest pianist and composer Nelda Swiggett draws from her long list of influences on "This Time," her first recording in a trio setting. The album brings her long-time band mates, bassist Chris Symer and drummer Byron Vannoy, into the forefront as the trio glides and twists through a program of highly melodic original compositions. Nelda's vocals are featured on both "Walk Beside Me" and "Say in Silence," bringing a distinctly personal quality to the project. "Swiggett can comp sparsely like Monk and then solo with Tynerian ringing fire..." - Cadence Magazine.
