Ballantyine chose pieces that demand great technical skill and use the piano’s full range, and he played them with unselfconscious fun.
On Saturday, the Prince Albert-born musician took to the stage at the University of Saskatchewan’s Convocation Hall as part of this year’s Saskatchewan Jazz Festival.
From start to finish, his program covered a lot of ground. Ballantyne didn’t just play the standards; he went out of his way to celebrate colleagues, collaborators and mentors, along with showcasing some of his own compositions. Those were interwoven with classics Ballantyne clearly loves to play, including pieces by John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk, without whom he said “no recital would be complete.”
