This is the second edition of our jazz playlist featuring piano trios only — a quiet yet stimulating soundtrack to gently energize your reading time, a calm but active intellectual pursuit. We've updated it as “Edition 3” by adding new tracks to the already published Editions 1 and 2.
*The first 15 tracks, up to Takeshi Shibuya’s “Shadow & Shade,” are the new selections for this update.
