A while back, I began to spend some time playing my Bosendorfer piano, like I used to do in the days when creating and performing gave meaning to my life. I knew what I had to do. I got rid of all the hi-tech stuff, started to work on some new music and formed the Pilhofer Jazz Quartet. Now I am discovering absolute joy in making the music that I love to make as well as the privilege of playing with talents like Steve Yeager, Gordy Johnson and my talented son Michael Pilhofer. It's all priceless!
I am forever grateful to Tom Jung, my former partner and friend, who encouraged me to do this album. For as long as I've known Tom, he has always been on a quest "for that perfect sound." Lucky for the Pilhofer Jazz Quartet, he is still chasing that rainbow. |

Super Audio CD It looks like a CD and it plays in all existing CD players, but this hybrid Super Audio CD (SACD) is much, much more. Created by Sony and Philips - the people who invented CD - this is actually a two layered disc. First is a reflective CD layer that assures backward compatibility with nearly 600 million CD players worldwide. Second is a semi-transmissive high-density layer, which can be read by a new generation of Super Audio CD players. It represents a new, altogether different way to produce music. An even better CD. |
