The Legacy Continues reflects music’s enduring power to transcend time, linking Bach’s luminous genius with the searching contemporary voices of Brad Mehldau and Keith Jarrett. For TMF, legacy is not something preserved in silence but kept alive through imagination, remembrance, and the ongoing act of creation.
