Announcing a new solo piano recording - If you remember going to The Bar in the Hilton Harrisburg from 1990-2012 during the Holidays, you would have heard me playing many of these tunes. "I'll Be Home" (PACT1016) was recorded during that time (2001) and was brought to light at the insistence of my friend Phil Haynes. This is a solo piano recording and it is only available as a download (no CD or LP) at: https://steverudolph.bandcamp.com/album/ill-be-home May your Holiday season and the coming New Year be filled with peace and joy! All love....

Recordings available - physical CDs and digital downloads - Scroll Down

I have been very fortunate to be able to play and record with truly superb musicians.  Most of the recordings that are currently available are included on this page.

Since CD Baby no longer offers recordings for sale, this will be the most consistent spot to purchase my recordings (either download or CD) -- please listen to the sample tracks and lend your support when inspired - these are trying times for working musicians and streaming music services offer little income for the recording artist. 

Visit my discography page to see my recording history - there are many CDs available that I recorded for other artists that you may enjoy and I'm sure they would appreciate your support.

Compositions of Duke Ellington & Billy Strayhorn performed live by Day Dream at Bucknell University

“[T]he individuality of this piano trio proves to be one of [its] most compelling aspects… making it a huge delight to immerse oneself in, again and again.” – Betsy Bell, Jazz Journal

“This is a trio that truly is more than the sum of its parts, attaining vibrancy and color through a melding of Gress’ deep, shapely tones, Haynes’ probing, loose-limbed accents and Rudolph’s heady lyricism.” – Lloyd Sachs, DownBeat

"Duke & Strays Live ... showcases the profound synergy between pianist Steve Rudolph, bassist Drew Gress, and drummer Phil Haynes ... balancing elegance with daring improvisation, this performance radiates both reverence and freshness — a heartfelt tribute steeped in the spirit of Ellington and Strayhorn." ~ Jazz Sketches

The very existence of the Day Dream trio embodies a twinned spirit of interpretation and innovation. The group’s three members span two generations and reflect a broad spectrum of stylistic approaches. Pianist Steve Rudolph boasts a career of more than 50 years... more credits released November 8, 2024

The physical CDs are sold out! so downloads are the only option.

Captivating and genuine. Music of extraordinary breath. Spacious. Their sound can startle exacting listeners, as harmonic overtones of cymbals & skins leap to Rudolph’s crystalline voicings, meshed with Gress’ bottomless reservoir of strung old growth. Ensemble chemistry and generosity of a stellar radiance. A contemporary classic.

Day Dream presents favorites from the great American songbook alongside works by Leonard Bernstien, Duke Ellington, Bill Evans, Billy Strayhorn, and Woody Shaw. In concert, we pair such jazz classics with harmonically striking, warm & lyrical original compositions.
