With this album, Dominic plays tribute to some of his favourite singer-pianists, including all-time-greats such as Shirley Horn, Blossom Dearie, Dave Frishberg and Michel Legrand. The group takes the format of the longstanding Shirley Horn trio, with Dominic singing at the piano, accompanied by electric bass (Madeleine Alldis) and drums (Martin France). Stellar jazz soloists Iain Ballamy (saxes) and Gerard Presencer (trumpet/flugelhorn) feature on several of the tracks.

Review
It's rare to find a pianist-singer with a style so finely integrated that it's hard to think of voice and piano as separate elements. His subtle treatment of lyrics matches the delicacy of his keyboard harmonies and he swings - quietly but inexorably. We're lucky to have him...
Dave Gelly, THE OBSERVER   
**** CD OF THE WEEK - His delivery is scrupulously precise in a very urbane and English way, and thus perfectly adapted to his purpose here, which is to lay bare rather than embellish the quality of his material.  Standards (‘So in Love,’ ‘Lush Life’) rub shoulders with less familiar material (Michel Legrand’s ‘I Still See You’, Ivor Novello’s ‘My Dearest Dear’).  Ballamy and Presencer make evocative contributions, but the ultimate goal is to let the songs speak for themselves – which, thanks to the highly articulate restraint of the performers, they do most eloquently.
