Alabama Places has been reviewed by Sonoloco, allmusic.com, the Birmingham News, and Bixobal Magazine. The CD was released August 14, 2007 on the innova Recordings label, and features twelve compositions for piano and microtonal keyboard -- each somehow connected to a place in Alabama.

Performing are distinguished pianist Ellen Tweiten, and Renaissance man Kurt Carpenter on the Korg Triton.
