Pianist Shai Maestro's new album, Human, magnifies his outgoing band (fellow Israeli Ofri Nehemya/drums & Jorge Roeder/bass) becomes a quartet with inspired addition of trumpeter Philip Dizack. Shai is well-matched by Dizack's quick alert improvising. Near the end of a programme comprised mostly of Maestro originals in a range of temperaments, is their own take on Duke Ellington's "In A Sentimental Mood", while Shai's "Hank and Charlie" pays tribute to the late Hank Jones and Charlie Haden.
