Time Remembered


Time Remembered is a musical piece by jazz pianist Bill Evans.
Jack Reilly says that the work is both influenced by the sixteenth century modal works of the polyphonist masters, and the oeuvre of the impressionist composers.
It was recorded for the first time in 1962 for the album Loose Blues and released for the first time in 1966 in Bill Evans Trio with Symphony Orchestra.

Harmonic analysis

The work is built over four modes: dorian, phrygian, lydian, and aeolian; and is notable for lacking dominant-like seventh chords, thus only using major and minor chords and their extensions. According to Reilly, these two factors give the work a modal and impressionistic flavor.
