16th May 2013: Robert Mitchell’s ‘The Glimpse’ Receives 4 Stars from Echoes

Robert Mitchell released his solo, left hand only album The Glimpse earlier this year and was well received by both by music critics and fans alike for it’s innovative concept on piano playing and composition. Robert also held a festival entitled ‘Leftitude’ just after the release at The Forge in Camden (London) for left hand only piano that featured a number of highly-acclaimed solo pianists – it was so successful that it’s planning a comeback early next year.

A few months after the initial release and the album is still receiving glowing reviews. This one today is from Echoes, which describes the album as a”fruitful undertaking” and that “Robert Mitchell is pushing the envelope in solo piano”. The reviewer also states that “the real triumph is the sense of distillation and clarity that is achieved without any denuding” and that “this is a good time for solo innovation”.
