One Alone is a 2000 studio album by pianist Dave Brubeck. It was the fifth album on which Brubeck performed unaccompanied solo piano, preceded by Brubeck Plays Brubeck (1956), Plays and Plays and... (1957), Just You, Just Me (1994) and A Dave Brubeck Christmas (1996). Reception Ken Dryden reviewed the album for AllMusic and wrote that "This highly recommended CD is yet another of his finest hours". Dryden described the "...unusual chord substitutions to the very familiar "Over the Rainbow"" as "dazzling". Reviewing the album for the Jazz Times, Larry Appelbaum wrote that "The pieces are played in either ballad or medium tempo, and all the trademark Brubeck characteristics are here: his stacking of chords with moving inner voicings on "I'll Never Smile Again," the wry and audacious polytonality of "Bye Bye Blues" and the superimposition of one meter upon another on "Harbor Lights." Few pianists today take so many risks with standard repertoire, and fewer still with such wit, elegance and taste". All About Jazz reviewed the album and wrote that "After decades of ground-breaking work, done without a road map or an agenda except for love of the music, Brubeck prevails triumphantly on "One Alone", his many bands that accessorized his music fading from the same level of prominence as Brubeck's sound but never disappearing from memory. ...Performing some of his favorite tunes from the 1930s and 1940s with their deceptively simple melodies, Brubeck not only offers a different perspective on what has been considered the ordinary, but also provides fresh evidence—as if any further evidence were needed—that his style is unmistakable and that his contributions are invaluable".
