about

"... a contemplative, introspective, and exploratory quality." During these days of conflict, sickness, and uncertainty, I hope this music will take you on inner journeys, be a healing force, and bring peace of mind. — Howard

“Chicago jazz master Howard Levy forges through pandemic by ‘Looking Inward’ with piano improvisations” — Howard Reich, Chicago Tribune

More from listeners:

“This is a different Howard Levy than we know and love. But equally brilliant. It’s the kind of music that brings your blood pressure down. But don’t confuse it with easy listening. There is a gentle challenge around every corner. But would expect less? Shine on Howard. You are a tonic for the soul”. — Jim Peterik, Rock n’ Roll Icon (Survivor, Ides of March), composer (“The Eye of the Tiger”)

“Looking Inward” is amazing. It’s the perfect music to do just that, look inward. Thanx for sharing it with me. I’ll be listening to this a lot. — Victor Wooten, bassist extraordinaire, composer, author

Beautiful improvisations, exquisitely performed. All that's missing is a really loud bass!
— Harry Shearer, aka Derek Smalls, actor/musician (Spinal Tap), voice actor (The Simpsons), and beyond

“Oh boy...do I ever need this music now! Thank you. What a great listen when I need to tune the craziness out.” — Derrick P

“It is really a balm for this moment and I'm particularly fond of the title track.” —Doyle A

“Hearing your album was a cathartic journey of the best kind, an evocative winding stroll wearing a smile. It's brilliant and resonated with me immediately, I'll be listening to it for years to come. Thank you for giving the world this masterpiece, I look forward to hearing where you take it from here.” — Marcus L

“Love them. Closed my eyes--- was thinking of my favorite Satie, Milhaud, Ginga, and Italian film composers Ennio Morricone and Luis Bacalov. Just saying your tunes and playing are as moving as the works I love from those guys. Bravo!” — Dane R

Beautiful, man! Do a vol. 2! — Chris S

“We so appreciate "looking inward "....beautiful and inspiring! ” — Deborah & Alberto M
