Heart to Heart is a solo piano album by Alan Broadbent. It was recorded in 2012 and released by Chilly Bin Records.
The album of solo piano performances by Broadbent was recorded in concert in Portland in 2012.[1] The album Lennie Tristano is an influence on some tracks, for the strict left-hand tempo that they feature.[1] "Cherokee" is played at high speed; "Lonely Woman" "operates in a minor chord fog and goes through several permutations".[1] "Now and Then" is played as a waltz.[2]
Heart to Heart was released by Chilly Bin Records in 2013.[2] DownBeat, in a five-star review, wrote: "Like few other practicing keyboardists, Broadbent's playing on this tour de force truly fulfills the potential of the instrument as an orchestra in a box".[1]
