New Conversations is an album by American jazz pianist Bill Evans, released in 1978.
New Conversations is Evans' third and final release in which he overdubs different piano tracks with his previously played track. The first release recorded in this manner was Conversations with Myself followed by Further Conversations with Myself. A noteworthy difference in this release is that he also uses electric as well as acoustic piano.
