STAR LEDGER Zan Stewart April 03, 2009 On his just-out Jazz Excursion CD, "In Your Absence," pianist Steve Myerson displays his well-rounded, agreeable musicality. Working with ace rhythm partners -- bassist Steve LaSpina and drummer Anthony Pinciotti -- Myerson delivers the four-part "Suite for Abdullah Ibrahim" (for the South African piano master), which boasts engaging moods and melodies. "One Note Songo" is an intriguing modern-minded samba, "Waltz for James Williams" a lyrical paean to the departed pianist. "Nobody Does it Better" is treated as a pop ballad with jazz heft. Myerson performs Apr. 7, 7-9:30 p.m., at Shanghai Jazz, 24 Main St., Madison. No music charge; $20 minimum. Call (973) 822-2899 or visit shanghaijazz.com.
