Mun (The Imagination)
“Mun" begins with a quiet ascending eighth-note passage interjected with subtle block jazz chords followed by a simplistic single note arpeggiated phrase repetitively rising and falling. A quarter note triplet segues into the next portion of the song where rapid flourishes dance around the keyboard over a chiming pedal tone. Smeets’ playing is not only creative but deliberate. His improvisations are evidentially well thought out with the time signature and tempo ingrained in his mind.
