CD Kudos

Just a note, but want you to know we (Brent and I) think your CD is really good. I particularly like the way you played “Dedicated to You.”  Very feelingful and lovely.

​I was just about to email you to thank you for sending your CD. I really enjoyed listening to it. Very swinging, beautifully played by all, and very well recorded!

ballads

Picture
George Mitchell's only
solo piano CD. Ballads
is a superb collection of
​jazz standards.

        "If you treasure the standard American songbook, you'll want to check out George Mitchell's new solo piano CD Ballads. You'll find a recital-quality George...who gets to the heart of 10 evergreens, examining their timeless melody lines with lovely harmonies. A few surprises include Where are You, a Jimmy McHugh sleeper that Frank Sinatra had much success with, and Billy Stayhorn's Lush Life, a song so difficult, not many musicians want to tackle it. Melody lovers, Ballads is going to make you very happy."

“Play Zone is an extraordinarily fine recording by George Mitchell’s band.  I only wish the group was working regularly so folks could enjoy it at will.”        --The Skanner  

        "To describe this album in a word: CRISP. Every phrasing, whether it's coming from the bright piano, the thumping upright bass, the buoyant guitar or the shuffling drums, sharply mingles with the collective, ensemble sound in such a clear, refined way that it almost suggests a grid, if not for the equally."    
​ -- CDbaby.com

        "This is an excellent selection of originals and standards by some fine players from Portland. Mitchell plays piano (think Bill Evans into Herbie) and B-3 organ (think Larry Young, Jr.) accompanied by guitar (not bad) and a good rhythm section."  
 -- Cansoon, CD Baby review

perspectives

"In the world of jazz pianists, George Mitchell is not just another pretty face.

The sticky swamp of New Age piano styles has made "pretty" a dirty word in jazz circles these days. So naturally, Mitchell feels a little defensive about his beautiful touch, his lyrical approach and the pretty melodies on his first CD, 'Perspectives.'

But the 39-year-old keyboard player and composer has worked with classic mainstream jazz stars such as Sonny Stitt and Jon Hendricks as well as pop diva Diana Ross, so Mitchell knows what cooks. And it's beauty he seeks."
