Hi,
For the piano, I split it on three tracks with different eq 1: intro+ the end of the tune, 2 solo sax and solo piano, 3 the rest of the song. on all I cut some frequencies between 500 (700-800) and 2Khz (1.3-1.8Khz). In the intro I did boost low mid (to have the left hand walk more round and present) and cut it in the song to make room for the bass (so the cuts in 500-2k aren't the same). The sound you made with the piano is bright and I like it, there are only few peaks in high mid (especially in the solo) that can be tweaked a bit down.
The drums seems far away for my taste, perhaps too much reverb, and the tom is hard to hear. Did you check the phase ? (for the drums and also with the other instruments). It is not the balance of the drums but the space where the drums are in. It makes me feel like i'm in the room with the singer and the saxes and the drums are in another one.
The voice is great, I really like it, the saxes and bass are too.
the overall balance sounds good.
hope it helps.
