All Our Reasons

All Our Reasons is a jazz album by drummer Billy Hart, recorded in June 2011 and released on ECM in March the following year.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek states "All Our Reasons is wonderfully executed, and full of excellent tunes, nice improvisational turns, numerous surprises (many of them subtle), and a warm, lively sense of engagement throughout." The Guardian's John Fordham noted "It's an A-list lineup, but focused on making unique music rather than parading technicalities." Michael J. West wrote in JazzTimes that "nine sublime, ruminative tracks that are as stark and atmospheric as the cover photograph... All Our Reasons is a splendid recording."
