Dominic's first vocal-jazz album, released in 1996, features the songs of jazz pianist, Bill Evans. Evans' songs are best known as instrumentals, but many of them have fine lyrics supplied by Gene Lees, ("My Bells", "Turn Out The Stars" and "Waltz for Debby"), Jim Hall ("The Two Lonely People") and Carol Hall ("Very Early").
