Keiko Matsui's Euphoria finds the Tokyo-born pianist in expansive form, framing her graceful melodies with strings, horns and an impressive cast of guests.

Released in 2023 on Shanachie, the album comes from an artist who has been one of contemporary jazz's most recognizable voices since her solo debut in the late eighties. Classically trained before falling for jazz as a teenager, she writes with a composer's sense of shape, and Euphoria gives those instincts plenty of room to unfold. Years of working with jazz heavyweights show in how naturally she shares the spotlight here, never letting a guest crowd the melody.

"Steps on the Globe" opens with buoyant, globe-trotting energy, while "Love and Nothing Less" welcomes Lalah Hathaway for a warm, soulful duet. Saxophonist Kirk Whalum lends a smoky glow to "Luminescence," and vibraphonist Joel Ross adds shimmering color to the title track "Euphoria." Guitarist Mike Stern and trumpeter Randy Brecker also stop by, and Matsui's piano stays at the heart of it all, lyrical and light on its feet.

Elegant and uplifting, it suits quiet mornings and candlelit evenings alike. This vinyl edition distills the album to a single LP, a graceful way to spend an evening with one of the genre's most enduring melodists and her remarkable friends.
