Music in the Key of Clark (subtitled Remembering Sonny Clark) is an album by pianist John Hicks which was recorded in 2001 and released on the HighNote label.[1] The album features eight compositions by Sonny Clark and five by Hicks.
Allmusic reviewed the album stating "Overall, the desired effect of such a brilliant release is to make one want to obtain earlier CDs by John Hicks and also to look for the original versions by Sonny Clark, if they aren't already in the listener's possession".[2] JazzTimes said "Music in the Key of Clark is not about imitation, however, but about tribute. Hicks calls attention to his predecessor's legacy with superb trio versions of pieces from Clark's huge output as a composer".[3]
