Title: Zodiac Suite

Release Date: September 15, 2023

Project Description: Critically acclaimed pianist/composer Aaron Diehl's penchant for the past influencing the future has come full circle with his fully realized suite of Mary Lou Williams' Zodiac Suite -- the first fully-fledged professional recording of this incredible music. Solely paying tribute to Mary Lou Williams was not the goal, as Diehl's mission is to give honor and praise to one of the greatest composers of the 20th century and the forgotten rich history of Black Classical Music.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

“...an exuberant multi-hued astrological excursion combining elements of jazz and classical that deserves to be considered with the extended works of Ellington, Mingus, and George Russell.” - Boston Globe

"He’s joined not by the Philharmonic, but by the adventurous chamber orchestra The Knights, which is staffed by some of the brightest younger players on the classical scene. And they’ve clearly invested time in all 12 parts of Williams’s suite." - The New York Times

"An excellent, overdue studio recording by the contemporary pianist and orchestra." - The Wall Street Journal

"Zodiac Suite is revealed as a joyous, enchanting creation." - The Guardian

"Aaron Diehl & the Knights’ Zodiac Suite may be the most important album of the year" - Tracking Angle
