“The thing that’s most important to me about Bill Evans is not a style. It’s not the way that he plays, or the devices that he uses. It’s the sound of the piano, and that’s something that comes from deep inside. So I made sure to hone in on my own sound for this album.”—Randy Ingram

It’s been 46 years since Bil Evans died but tributes to the legendary New Jersey pianist have continued to be released in 2024, 2025 and now, with the appearance of Sound Within: A Celebration of Bill Evans (Chill Tone Records), 2026.
