Well, it's obvious G.F. has been around awhile........exemplified by the personal interpretation of his own wonderful original piece, ''Words.'' I will say too, this jazz trio also 'comes to play' as it were! There is no non originality in Mlely's style. On the contrary, one might say that jazz pianists could certainly draw inspiration from the authenticity of his nouveau keyboard refinement.
If jazz depends on invention for its very life, then Mlely succeeds in displaying (musically) his personal conceptions and ideas assimilated visa/vie the influences he has undergone. I don't say this to take anything away from his pianistic artistry, only to suggest that he expresses his craft with more than a modicum of artistic conscience. Nothing is obtained without some effort. Mlely's efforts are reconciled in the music he creates. Good stuff G.F.
